Caribbean news. The Foundation for Entrepreneurial Participation (TFEP) has launched unique Internet based Euro-Caribbean Enterprise Partnership Service (ECEPS) is a place where Caribbean and European companies, of whatever size and location, can register to seek business Partners in Europe and the Caribbean, respectively.
This is a FREE service to businesses.
In today’s global economic climate it is vital for small businesses to expand their horizons and develop relationships with enterprises in other countries to facilitate and expand their export potential. This new Euro-Caribbean service was launched by Her Excellency Victoria Dean (British High Commissioner to Barbados) in May 2014 in Bridgetown attended by a variety of Government and business representatives.
In order to implement the ECEPS service in Barbados, The Foundation for Entrepreneurial Participation (TFEP) signed an agreement with the Barbados Small Business Association to promote the service to enterprises in Barbados and to support their International aspirations.
Once a “Business Match” is found the Small Business Association in Barbados and various support organisations in the Caribbean and Europe will be on hand to offer practical support and guidance to ensure an effective and productive partnership, these “Support Organisations” are listed on our website.
“ .. This new web-based initiative will enhance and deepen the relationship between companies in the Caribbean and Europe and should increase economic activity. The service offers the business sector an innovative way to find a business Partner and enhance their sustainability” says Dr Paul Quantock, Chairman of The Foundation for Entrepreneurial Participation.”
