BAKU, Azerbaijan, Nov. 11
By Zeyni Jafarov – Trend:
Of course, the coronavirus pandemic COVID-19 has negatively affected many sectors of the Azerbaijani economy, including consulting services, Director of Azecoconsulting company Aydin Hasanov told Trend.
“The number of people applying for getting soft loans has increased thanks to the programs of the Azerbaijani government to support entrepreneurship, carried out over the past two months of this year,” Hasanov added. “So, accordingly, the number of appeals to the consulting organizations increased.”
Referring to the obstacles to the development of this market, Hasanov stressed that there are no problems in this sphere.
“However, some Azerbaijani businessmen in most cases think that they do not need consulting services,” the director added. “This, of course, creates some problems in the development of this market. In general, the consulting market has been changing for the better recently.”
Hasanov also stressed that if one talks about the state organizations, then here one can see the fact that no funds are allocated for these services.
“Appeals arise in case of receiving grants,” the director said.
"As in previous years, our company carries out extensive work on the distribution and the need for consulting services among entrepreneurs and also contributes to the development of consulting in Azerbaijan," Hasanov added.
