The main goal of European project e-MINDER (www.eminderproject.com) is to bring the new technological knowledge that Information Society demands, more specifically dealing with SMEs (Small and Middle-sized Enterprises) e-commerce processes.
To meet this objective, a Network of regional European leveraging centres in Galicia (Spain), Pomerania (Poland - www.eminder.pl) and Cyprus (www.e-minder.com.cy) has been created. The three participant regions have similar characteristics: peripheral location, low level of development in ITC (Technologies of the Information and of the Communications) usage and its application, being SMEs the most predominant model of enterprise.
E-MINDER project aims at these basic objectives:
To encourage the introduction of SMEs in e-commerce process through the creation of leveraging centres among the three partner regions
To provide SMEs with useful and fair knowledge about new technologies and e-commerce.
To spread the activities of the centres and synchronise them with other centres that reached positive results.
At the end of the project, each centre will produce a reference manual for future leveraging centres.
