Daar is deurlopend uitdagings, soos om die beste bemarkingstegniek vir jou onderneming te identifiseer, jou…, Sakekamers kan klein ondernemings help, Prof Tommy du Plessis Almal op die AHi-kongres in Potchefstroom verlede week was dit eens dat wat Suid-Afrika nodig het, duisende nuwe kleinsakeondernemings is – ’n syfer van minstens 1 miljoen voor 2030 is genoem. Kortweg kom dit daarop neer dat hoe meer klein- en middelslag-ondernemings (KMO’s) gevestig en suksesvol bedryf kan word, hoe meer…http://commerce.nwu.ac.za/business/community
