Abstract
The business development programme of support to Local Business Service Centres (LBSCs) in South Africa helped establish a national network for small, medium and micro enterprise (SMME) in the country. The report provides an independent and informal strategic overview of the status and prospects of the programme. As well, it offers suggestions on options to tackle both the strategic and operational challenges now confronting the LBSC programme in view of performance to date and the resources available to it.
