The National Centre for Small & Micro-Enterprises Development (NCSMED) is mandated under the Small and Micro-Enterprises Act of 2002 to develop, promote and support small and micro-enterprises (SME). The primary focus of the centre's work will be towards economically or socially disadvantaged groups, including young people and women. The broad aims of the Centre include the development of business training programmes, advocacy for a supportive policy and regulatory environment for SMEs, and facilitation of credit and funding for SMEs. The Centre is the key player in Government's goal to realise a quantum leap in the nation's economy. SMEs represent a huge potential for wealth and employment creation which is largely untapped.
