Enterprise Uganda is a public-private institution designed to support the government in realising its objective of promoting the development of SME’s as the main vehicle for expanding production, providing sustainable jobs and enhancing economic growth.
It was established under a framework of the UNDP Enterprise Africa regional initiative with support from a consortium of local and international donors. The concept behind Enterprise Uganda is based on the Empretec Programme Model currently operating in 32 countries in Africa, Eastern Europe and Latin America. The Empretec model is designed as one-stop programme, which provides an integrated and comprehensive range of business support services for SMEs using a hands-on approach.
