In an increasingly interconnected world, business success no longer depends only on what a company offers, but on the networks it builds and the collaborations it creates. For Albanian businesses, especially those operating in or aiming to enter international markets, collaboration is no longer optional, it is a strategic necessity.
Today, Albanians are present in almost every corner of the world as entrepreneurs, professionals, investors, and community leaders. This global presence represents extraordinary potential, which too often remains untapped due to the lack of structured platforms that transform connections into concrete collaborations.
Why is collaboration among Albanian businesses so important?
Collaboration creates far more than individual economic growth. It builds trust, opens access to new markets, enables knowledge sharing, and creates long-term development opportunities. An Albanian business in the U.S., Europe, or the Balkans has a significantly higher chance of growth when it connects with other Albanian businesses that share the same culture, language, and vision.
Rather than each business attempting to enter new markets alone, collaboration creates synergy: one contributes experience, another provides networks, and another offers resources. This is how strong business ecosystems are built.
From online community to real-world action
With this philosophy in mind, the Facebook group “Sipërmarrësit Shqiptarë në Mbarë Botën” (Albanian Entrepreneurs Around the World) was created. With over 42.6K members, it serves as a space where Albanian entrepreneurs, professionals, and ambitious individuals from across the globe connect, share experiences, ideas, and collaboration opportunities. The group is not merely a discussion platform, but a starting point for real business relationships.
Beyond the online space, these initiatives have also taken shape in the physical world. We have been active in Tirana, organizing meetings, events, and activities that bring Albanian entrepreneurs together, demonstrating that the need for networking and collaboration is both real and growing.
Albanian Business Showcase + Networking Event: a concrete step toward collaboration
As a continuation of this vision, the Albanian Business Showcase + Networking Event is being organized, an event dedicated to creating strategic connections among Albanian businesses, professionals, and emerging talent.
The event is organized by Marsilda Bialczak, founder of Expand2Market, a digital marketing agency, and creator of the Facebook group Sipërmarrësit Shqiptarë në Mbarë Botën, with over 42.6K members. Marsilda is a business mentor and marketing consultant with over 15 years of experience in marketing and social media, as well as 13+ years of sales experience in European and U.S. markets, primarily within the technology and IT sectors.
This event is not designed as a traditional conference, but as an active networking platform where:
- entrepreneurs present their businesses,
- real collaborations are formed,
- relationships are built that extend far beyond a single day.
Event Details:
📅 Date: February 28
⏰ Time: 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM
📍 Location: Albanian Boston Community Center 39 Bow St., Beverly, MA 01915
The event will also include appetizers, creating a welcoming environment for high-quality networking.
In this journey, the role of media is essential.
