The 3rd Annual Micro Small and Medium Enterprises Forum currently underway in Windhoek aims to attract financial investors to grow MSME on the African continent.

The forum attracted delegates from 55 African Union member states.

The five-day forum further serves as a platform for stakeholders to collaborate, share insights, and develop strategies to support the growth and development of micro, small, and medium enterprises.

The Executive Director of Talent, Innovation & Productivity, Julia Muetudhana, said, "The whole forum is meant to bring MSMEs across Africa; this is to make sure that we continue creating employment and opportunities for young people."

The forum is packed with different activities, which include pitching opportunities for funding.

The platform also presented opportunities for SME's from different African countries to showcase their products.

The forum is held under the theme: fostering financial empowerment and educational innovation for African start-ups and SME's.
