We shall have financial institutions and government owned agencies on standby to give important business related information to those present.

This platform aims to bring together small business owners, government leaders, and experts in business development and planning to exchange ideas and find ways to deal with the current challenges facing the SMME sector. We shall use this platform to discuss immediate opportunities available in the Western Cape and Cape Town, which could help local small businesses.
