Ooredoo Maldives extended its support to a workshop by global e-commerce leader Alibaba, organised in collaboration with the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade. The event, held yesterday at Barcelo Nasandhura Malé and streamed online nationwide, brought together more than 260 Maldivian entrepreneurs.
The workshop offered local businesses practical tools and strategies to expand their reach into international markets through Alibaba.com and other e-commerce platforms. It also forms part of the government’s broader efforts to diversify the economy and create new opportunities for online trade.
State Minister for Economic Development and Trade Abdulla Siyaz described the chance for Maldivian businesses to list on Alibaba.com as a milestone, enabling them to access global consumers and strengthen the country’s digital trade landscape.
By supporting the initiative, Ooredoo Maldives reaffirmed its role in enabling local businesses with digital solutions and strategic collaborations. The company noted that initiatives of this kind open global doors for Maldivian entrepreneurs, allowing them to showcase their products worldwide.
