Training SMEs to appreciate financial institutions

Ms Ruth Biyinzika Musoke, the PSFU director for membership services, told Smart Money that since the inception of the annual event three years ago, at least 500 jobs in the SMEs sector have been created. She said more progressive businesses have been opened after such events because they provide information and brings SMEs together with players in key service areas. Also, a session on how to tap the opportunities that the oil sector will unveil was conducted by players in the industries.

In essence, the experience that SMEs attained from the three-day event would have cost a fortune if they had decided to hire the services of a consultant. Therefore it is important for SMEs to get involved in such events that offer useful additions to their businesses.
