Empretec-Jordan is a unique program aiming to promote sustainable SMEs and help promising entrepreneurs through its training workshops and technical support.

The program was initiated in 2002 from the offices of JLGC, through the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development UNCTAD, and is under supervision of the United Nations Development Program UNDP in association with the Jordanian Government represented by the Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation.

The Empretec-Jordan Club was established in August 2005 through the effort of graduates from these workshops in order to maintain cooperation between them and build a database to facilitate this network.

Mr. Ez El Deen Katakhda who was voted president of the club on December 18th 2005, said the membership in the club is restricted on Emprectos and Empretecas who attended the workshop and completed it successfully at least once.
