Project description
PECOS4SMEs transformed Web 2.0 trends into applicable tools, which the SMEs can use to change sales and marketing strategies and new types of organisation and knowledge about e-Commerce technologies in a future world dominated by pervasive Internet.

Utilising PECOS4SMEs SMEs improving their ICT and methodological competence and are be able to establish an e-Commerce strategy that best suits their business (e.g company blog, Twitter account, attaching “Dig This” and “Tweet This” tags to the end of articles, social networking and viral videos through YouTube etc.). The project concerned the development of innovative practices (hands on training under an action plan specifically designed for SMEs) for the personalization of the training to SMEs depending on their specific characteristics.
