Nine (9) businesses from St. Vincent and the Grenadines are participating in a 5-month joint online training initiative called Virtual E-Commerce Accelerator Program (VEAP).
In a press release, Invest SVG said it is working with the Caribbean Export Development Agency (CEDA) as a support organization and offering local businesses assistance with e-commerce as part of their development strategy.
This is a practical online training initiative designed to support e-commerce adoption as part of Caribbean firms’ business strategies and operations.
The technical support is provided under the Virtual E-Commerce Accelerator Program (VEAP), which started on Thursday, February 2, 2023.
