Business without borders

Read in Ukrainian

With the quarantine time, the concept of “remote work” has been implemented in every business. Is it possible to do remote business?

Today around the world we have the opportunity to observe how Ukrainian entrepreneurs are forced to organize remote work for the whole companies, effectively relocating their employees and also their families. At the same time, in such a difficult period they are trying to keep profits.

 

How to manage a critical situation effectively and not lose business?

To find out the answers to these questions, activists of the Ukrainian NGO decided to talk with Ukrainian entrepreneurs who had chosen to migrate to Turkey.

After several meetings, a small circle of like-minded people came up with the idea of creating a separate direction within the NGO: the community as a platform for communication between Ukrainian entrepreneurs in Turkey. Those who have lived and worked in the Republic of Turkey for a long time, and newly arrived entrepreneurs.

The purpose of the community is to establish useful connections, partnerships, meetings, business events, exchange of experiences, and, of course, joint leisure.

 

How the Business Club of GOUR was established?

The first meeting of the Business Club of GOUR (NGO “Ukrainian Family”, Gromadska Organizatsiya Ukrayinska Rodyna or shortly GOUR in Ukrainian) was conducted on April 7, 2022. At this event, we hosted an unexpected number of people — more than 50. In these turbulent times, when most families had just moved away from the war to Antalya and found refuge here. The organizers were sincerely comforted by the initiative and strength of spirit of all guests present!

During the first meeting, participants had the opportunity to meet, introduce themselves, talk about what they did before the war in Ukraine started, and share plans, opportunities, and needs.

Vita Mykhailova, the head of NGO “Ukrainian Family”, spoke about her experience in NGO. For more than 12 years, NGO “Ukrainian Family” has been promoting Ukrainian culture and language, providing support to compatriots in the Antalya region. The foundress succeeded in uniting all Ukrainians into a real big family.

NGO “Ukrainian Family” is an official member of the World Congress of Ukrainians and the World Federation of Ukrainian Women’s Organizations (WFUWO), so it has extensive experience in participating in international projects and strong support from Ukrainians in all world.

What is the secret to the success of Ukrainian entrepreneurs?

It is the synergistic combination of the efforts of “local” Ukrainians and the unbridled desire of IDPs — entrepreneurs to develop and manage to successfully conduct “business without borders” and organize the remote business.

The secret to the success of a business without borders is undoubtedly the professional support of each other’s entrepreneurs, collaboration instead of competition, and the absence of any mental constraints in management.

Each member of the Club has his own story, and at the same time, all participants are united by strength of spirit and diligence!
