Representatives of Makhuduthamaga Small, Medium and Micro Enterprises are expected to converge at Boeketlong Lodge in Mogoroane Village today (Wednesday) to partake in a session that will offer them an opportunity to network with leading business brands, access support services, and explore new ventures.

Thomas Mashabela, the spokesperson for Makhuduthamaga Local Municipality, said that the National Youth Development, Limpopo Economic Development, Small Enterprise Development, and Finance agencies, as well as the Sekhukhune District Municipality, Limpopo Treasury, and the Fetakgomo Tubatse Special Economic Zone, will form part of the key role players offering business management support to the participating entrepreneurs.

Mashabela stated that the event will feature exhibitions, commission discussions, and skills empowerment sessions.
