The Federal Government has intensified efforts to strengthen the growth and sustainability of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) through the development of digital platforms and policy reforms aimed at improving the business environment across the country.

Prosper Ogbonna, Reform Leader for High-Impact Investments at the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council (PEBEC), disclosed this in an interview with BusinessDay in Ilorin, Kwara State.

Ogbonna revealed that the Federal Government was set to launch Bizlink, a technology-driven platform designed to amplify the voices of small business owners and enhance their visibility in the digital marketplace.

According to him, the initiative is in response to the increasing digitalisation of economic activities and the need to equip businesses with tools to thrive in the online space.

“We are creating a digitised platform where businesses can advertise free of charge. This will enable small businesses across the country to showcase their products and services and gain wider market access,” he said.
