Assisted with a research project targeted at the extent to which South Africa’s small businesses are growing. The SME Growth Index tracked a targeted selection of small to medium sized businesses over several years in order to understand what encouraged and inhibited their growth, and how best to support this critical sector of the economy. The project was enthusiastically welcomed by the government and the private sector.Worked closely with key government departments and business organizations, including the Chamber, to ensure that the research findings have influence among decision makers in the public and private sectors.Established a panel of 500 businesses to participate in this research.
