Our mission is to be a central pillar to the SME community. As entrepreneurs ourselves, we fully understand challenges that SMEs are facing and our focus is precisely aimed at those challenges.
In order for the work of SME Africa to have a lasting impact in the country, we are dependent on the support and collaboration of a wide range of partners; from those in the private sector, to government and civil society organisations.
Together with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA) and South African Revenue Services (SARS) we've launched quite a number of events ranging from Woman Empowerment Programs to Youth Empowerment initiative.
We believe so much that in order for us as an organisation to tackle these challenges that SME's are facing, we need to come together and join forces. Our doors will always be open to any organisation that share the same vision of empowering SMEs in South Africa, so should you as an entrepreneur or organisation be interested in partnering with us then please do not hesitate to contact us.
