eCommerce Acceleration Programme

ESCWA launched the fourth eCommerce Acceleration Programme (eCAP), with the support of the ICC-ESCWA Centre of Entrepreneurship, to empower Arab small and medium enterprises (SMEs) through their transition journey into online selling.

The eCAP programme builds the capacity of SMEs from the Arab region to transition into online selling by developing their transactional eCommerce websites. Participating SMEs will benefit from business and technical expertise, critical setup fees to build their online stores, one-on-one coaching, in addition to exposure and access to networking opportunities.

Eligible SMEs must:

• Be registered and operational in one of the Arab countries;
• Have a working product or service that can be sold online;
• Have an online presence on social media;
• Be willing to dedicate 1-2 team members for the project;
• Have never participated in the eCAP programme before.
