About us

The Lankaran Branch of the Baku Business Training Center established its operation in November of 2006 under the name of “Lankaran Regional Business Training Center.” At that time, it was an independent Business Centre under the guidance of one of the entities of the Ministry of Economic Development of Azerbaijan Republic, the Baku Business Training Center. Six regional branches of the Center were established with the intention to expand and improve the outreach of the Baku Business Training Center. The underlying aim for establishing the Center was to support the “State Program for Social-Economic Development of the regions of Azerbaijan Republic,” with financial assistance from German Technical Cooperation (GTZ).

The Lankaran Branch of the Baku Business Training Center was launched in Lankaran on the basis of the F-22 order of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Azerbaijan Republic dated March 2, 2009. Like all other Business Centers it became a branch with the aim to be closer connected to the Baku Business Center and supported financially for support of the Ministry of Economic Development in regional development measures.  Its purpose is to disseminate information, provide consulting and offer training courses to meet the requirements of the SME in the region.

The Lankaran Business Training Center is furnished with modern computers, visual and technical aids required to offer a wide range of high quality services. The Center is staffed by an experienced and highly qualified team of experts who are available to develop and provide services for entrepreneurs and those seeking to establish a business in the Southern region of Azerbaijan.

The Lankaran Business Training Center is proud to have established business ties with more than 200 enterprises, 25 NGOs and various bodies of the National Confederation for Entrepreneurship Support of the Azerbaijan Republic.

By expanding the entrepreneurs’ interest areas, the Center identifies the needs encountered by entrepreneurs, conducts economic researches on a regular basis, and delivers a wide range of information, training, and consulting services designed to improve the effectiveness of the businesses in the region.
