WB6 CIF MARKET ACCESS DATABASE & MARKET INTELLIGENCE DATABASE
A three-year project of the European Union supporting small and medium-sized enterprises in the region, began with the signing of an Agreement between the European Commission and the Western Balkans Chamber Investment Forum (WB6 CIF) in Tirana on December 19, 2019.
Small and medium-sized companies from all six Western Balkan economies will have concrete support in improving production and export capacities and increasing the placement of goods and services on the regional and world markets.
Within the EU project “EU support to WB6 CIF”, through the WB6 CIF Regional Supplier Development Program whose main goal is to support the establishment of a Common Regional Market, an accessible platform “Market Access & Market Intelligence Database” was set up.
The free online platform offers various services, information and support in modern business.
