The Department of Small Business Development and its agencies SEDA and SEFA in partnership with the KZN provincial government take SMME funding to communities
The Department of Small Business Development and its agencies the Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA) and the Small Enterprise Finance Agency (SEFA) in partnership with the KwaZulu Natal Provincial Government, will be hosting information and pitch for funding sessions to expand SMME funding reach to Township and Rural Communities.
The information sessions are initiatives to inform potential beneficiaries on how to access business development opportunities provided through the Department and its agencies, Provincial Government and other stakeholders. Pitch for Funding provides financial and non-financial support on the spot to address township and rural economic development and human development, among others.
The Minister for Small Business Development, Ms Khumbudzo Ntshavheni, is scheduled to visit various local districts of Kwa-Zulu Natal.
The media is invited to the outreach in February as follows:
