CIOL Launches eBiz Channel

BANGALORE: Cyber India Online Limited (CIOL) has launched CIOL eBiz Channel, an initiative to create an interactive platform of dynamic content and services, to evangelize the cause of e-business and to facilitate the adoption of relevant technology amongst the Indian user community across industry verticals.

According to a release, for the first time ever, CIOL has introduced a unique opportunity to the IT community, an online channel on e-business which deals with specific aspects of e-business solutions. Through this channel CIOL plans to reach out to, connect with and engage target constituents like large corporate houses, PSUs, Government Departments, Banks and MNCs across revenue bands

and industries in a continuous dialogue that allows for in-depth knowledge acquisition, it added.

The channel, which can be found at https://www.ciol.com/ebiz, will make available comprehensive knowledge forums on e-business enabling emerging technologies to users for them to gain significant understanding of the same and their relevance to and impact on the business drivers. The uniqueness of the service lies in the way CIOL eBiz Channel presents information and interactive services, which can be accessed by the user either by vertical industry or by Enterprise Solution. This unique approach allows a manager, say, in an automotive industry to access only that information and services relevant to his/her industry and not waste precious time in figuring out which information will suit him/her best. The vertical industry supported in the channel include Automotive, Hi-Tech, Retail, Telecom and Banking & Finance.

Other enterprise solutions like Back-Office Management, Data Management, Infrastructure and Services will be offered in phases.
