Present (cont.): Purpose & OperationWG on expansion
we have one ‘friend’: ENBIS (European Network for Business and Industrial Statistics) presented our views on current topics and potential for
cooperation at 2010 ENBIS conference (Antwerp) invited to have an ENBES event (session etc) during
2012 ENBIS conference in Ljubljana, Slovenia
Ideas for futureexpand more into: academia, private sector (e.g.
users of business statistics)identify areas of common interest with other
fields/org’sinvite them to our activities or make joint ones
