The pandemic has changed the situation around the world and consequently changed the approach of chambers of commerce in Georgia, said the President of the Chamber of Commerce, Giorgi Pertaia, Trend reports via Georgian media.
"Demands for online services have increased. If in the past, companies were less interested in online services, today we face a different reality and demand is high. So, we start training for the members on online sales," said Pertaia.
According to him, the chamber is working on several projects to help small and medium-sized businesses to adapt to the new reality.
"We are working in various directions, including we try to find foreign partners. We are also launching a new project "EU for Business". In addition, we are working actively to help entrepreneurs easily meet the new challenges," said the president of the chamber.
