Project Abstract

ECAMP (European E-Commerce Associate Merchant Program) is a European research project (IST Program, IST-1999-11153).

This project aims to develop innovative and dynamically networked virtual environments called "corporation modelling platforms." These "Merchant Corporations" will draw their revenue by obtaining memberships and interfacing with existent web affiliate programmes.

The created system will provide interested parties with the platforms, technological resources, business guidance, and real-world environments necessary for the building, business development, maintenance and growth of their own on-line merchant corporations.

These real-world market business development environments will lead to unique business-led consensus e-commerce model building between all the participants.

ECAMP's business objectives are:

  1. To transfer to parties the knowledge necessary to compete within the electronic marketplace;
  2. To facilitate the development of e-Commerce applications and models for European organisations within real-world market environs;
  3. To offer innovative virtual networking mediation systems for business inter-operation.
