EB2BSN · Let us build the first European Business-to-Business Social Network

ALG is an innovative SME founded in 2010, builder of the Attestation Légale platform (http://www.attestationlegale.fr), currently in use by thousands of French businesses. The Attestation Légale platform is a Software as a Service (SaaS) Web application through which businesses can share their administrative documents and can benefit from alerts and always up-to-date documents.Because of the future implementation of a European directive that reinforces the obligation of diligence in Europe (http://www.lemoniteur.fr/165-commande-publique/article/actualite/23657764-bruxelles-adoption-definitive-des-directives-marches-publics-et-concessions), our objective and our main motivation for this project proposal are to investigate the possibility of deploying our solution on a European scale.The deployment of such a solution will lead to the following outcomes:- Improvement of the competitiveness of European businesses by the administrative simplification accelerated by the European directive;- Better regulation in the context of worker secondment and contribute to the effort on countering unfair competition between multiple European Union businesses.These outcomes will also lead to the following impacts:- Usage disruption by eliminating the redundant processes and costs related to the diffusion and the collect of administrative documents;- Technological disruption by modeling and exploiting these Business-to-Business social networks while respecting the requirement of privacy and data property specific to businesses actors;- Data governance disruption by letting the members of our platform to remain the owner of the produced data.The objectives of this phase 1 are to identify the European countries in which our solution can be deployed. If such countries are found in phase 1, the phase 2 would enable us to either prototype or modify our current solution to support these countries and to let their businesses benefit from our solution.
