Small Business Webinar didn’t get down to the ‘nitty gritty’

The feedback that has been received arising out of the December 2 webinar hosted by the Small Business Bureau suggests that despite the persistent media attention being focussed on the circumstances of small businesses, government continues to ‘miss the bus’ insofar as their growth requirements are concerned.
 Feedback from participants in the forum suggests that while the discourse featured exchanges with representatives of various state agencies including the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA), National Insurance Scheme (NIS), Guyana National Bureau of Standards (GNBS), and the Commercial Registry, all of which are concerned with compliance by small businesses in one form or another, there was “little or nothing on offer” with regard to such support that the state and the lending sector can offer small businesses that can contribute to their growth and development.
