IBBC is supporting World Bank / IFC in the promotion of business resilience and training courses for SME’s in Iraq. The driver behind this initiative is to give Iraqi SME’s support to ride out and survive the business effects of COVID-19 pandemic and the effect it has particularly on the smaller businesses in the economy.
The support provides five free business training courses that SME’s can take via Webbex or Youtube, provided they sign up. Thank you for your help so far in distributing the first seminar to your contacts and suppliers. We now have the further four seminars available for the SME’s to register for.
We kindly also ask you as members, if you can share this initiative and the course registration with any SME in your network, however small, and encourage them to sign up.
IBBC is hosting the next webinar on 14th July and again on 27th July:
