The Micro and Small Enterprise Productivity Development Program (Iqlaa), funded by the US Government, offers free mentoring and support in entrepreneurship and financial management to strengthen businesses in sectors such as agriculture, tourism and hospitality, manufacturing and services.
The program follows a mentoring framework of 12 knowledge areas across the stages of a business: idea generation, establishment, operations, profitability and growth. Mentoring is delivered through one-to-one sessions and themed group sessions, online and at Iqlaa business centres.
A short introductory session, then usually three months of mentoring at 2–4 hours a month. Each session takes 45–60 minutes plus 10–20 minutes of preparation.
Free memberships for small and emerging businesses, including the Business Hub platform to market products for free.
