Rural Enterprise: Addressing unique challenges of rural businesses, such as access to markets, technology integration, and sustainable practices. The programme aims to boost productivity and profitability while preserving the distinct character of rural enterprises.
Family-owned: This cohort focuses on the distinctive dynamics of family-owned businesses, helping to ensure a thriving legacy for future generations.
