An initiative by Loden Foundation to list and create a directory for Businesses in Bhutan. The online platform to serve as a directory for Entrepreneurs to assist in networking, marketing and also an effort to map the entrepreneurial landscape.
Most startups understand the importance of digital presence, a decent website to start with. With a limited pool of funds for their start up, spending raised capital to build a website (which most entrepreneurs do not have any skills) is a bottleneck for small startups. The platform would serve as their web link during their initial phase.
The platform would also categorize the listings by location, start up category and help network within the community
The platform will also assist them in their digital marketing effort. A review function by the clients is also available to nudge the entrepreneurs in regard to the service they provide.
Over all, if the platform can list as many business establishments as possible, we would be able to map the businesses categorized by their activities, location and then entrepreneur (promotor)
Longer term plan for the platform is to provide digital solutions through the platform to promote technology adoption in their business operations.
