Working on laptop
The last few months have been challenging especially for Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs). Given the considerable contribution of SMEs to the local economy, data-driven, sector-oriented and well-coordinated support to the small-businesses will be important to get to grip with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. ACT Global, as part of the USAID Economic Development, Governance and Enterprise Growth Project (EDGE) implemented by International Development Group (LLC IDG) is conducting COVID-19 Impact Assessment on SMEs in the following value chains:

1. Fruits and Vegetables;

2. Tourism; 
3. Light Manufacturing;
4. ICT  

Therefore, we would like to kindly ask you for collaboration and contribute to the research project by completing a short online survey. Your participation is crucial to obtain reliable data and support USAID to design targeted assistance programs for SME recovery and resilience building.
