How can a person be sure that the people he or she does business with - over the Internet - really are who they claim to be?

Doing business in the virtual world depends as much on trust as any business in the physical world.

ChamberSign's primary goal is to achieve interoperability among Digital Certificates issued by Chambers and used by European companies in cross-border B2B e-Commerce.

Digital Certificates = electronic signatures = hand-written signatures = same legal value

The transition to the “new economy“ presents opportunities for industry and commerce of every size and description.

The need to be aware of the varying legislative and regulatory climate, which differs from country to country within the European Union, is felt by enterprises in general, particularly SMEs throughout Europe.

Specialist international legal advice is notoriously expensive and may represent an obstacle in setting up new e-Commerce initiatives.

All Chambers are different: they operate in different business, cultural and legal contexts, deliver different services

The Aesop project explores the concept of Third Generation Portals

Its aim is to provide Chambers with a standard and reconfigurable on line “workspace” to deliver services to its members
