История о том как открыть бизнес в отдаленном регионе Кыргызстана

Недавно я побывала в Баткене и вдохновилась тем, как некоторые люди, стремясь к лучшей жизни и имея предпринимательский дух начинают создавать свой бизнес и, тем самым способствуют развитию своей местности. 47-летняя Жолболдуева Гульнара Токтобаевна известная в городе Баткен женщина-бизнесмен. Гульнару эже знают практически все в Баткене и за его пределами. Иностранные туристы и сотрудники международных, государственных организаций останавливаются у нее в гостинице «Алтын-Бешик » . Гостиница открылась 10 лет назад, в октябре 2006 года. Из-за большого количества гостей в доме Гульнары эже ее дети предложили написать снаружи дома «гостиница». Толчком послужил еще и тот факт, что приехали гости из Бишкека и остановились у нее, у которой на тот момент еще не была сформирована гостиница. Они предложили улучшить условия проживания, поставить кровати и протянуть в дом канализацию. Она последовала их советам. Открылась гостиница с одним санузлом на 5 коек. Далее люди начали с

Would better enforced Intellectual Property rights benefit Kyrgyz wearing apparel sector?

Making Big Money on Poor

My microeconomics teacher used to tell me that if one want to make money she/he should target people with low income. Most starting businesses I see in Bishkek are focused on luxury, upper class goods and services. Those are either bars & restaurants or stores with expensive brand clothing and accessories. They promote themselves as unique and only for wealthy people type of business. As a result, not all of those businesses succeed and they either close or do "re-branding". Where do businessman look? Do they see the sad reality??? Yes, there are people with high incomes, but it is only a small fraction of the total country population. I think that if business start to focus on a wider part of the population, they will not only get greater profits, but will also bring 'good' with affordable in price products for many and will contribute to more developed markets in the region, not only in the city. However, there is always the other side of the coin. Ethan Kay a
