Global Entrepreneurship week: Powering the Engines of our Economy
13 November 2022
As we celebrate Global Entrepreneurship week between 14 and 18 November 2022, the Western Cape Government commits to backing our entrepreneurs who are the engines of our economy.
Creating an enabling environment for SMMEs to succeed, by cutting red tape, and providing the foundations for growth, is the best way we can unlock the huge potential that exists our province, including in our township and informal economy.
That is why the Western Cape Government runs a number of entrepreneur-enabling programmes, which include:
Red Tape Reduction Unit - Our dedicated Red Tape Reduction Unit works with businesses across all sectors, and across our government, as well as with other levels of government, to remove barriers that emerge and has maintained a successful case resolution rate of 93% for the last financial year.
