Network of Regional and Local Business Centres, Montenegro

Acronym

DDSME

Description

In Montenegro, a network of regional and local business centres has been developed (six regional centres and three local ones), providing a number of subsidised services for businesses and supporting beginners in business. In partnership with donors (such as EAR and GTZ), DDSME has created eleven regional/local business centres.

More than 70% of the territory of Montenegro is now covered with these regional centres, which provide support to entrepreneurs during the various phases of their operation, expansion and development.

The services include:

· Free of charge advisory and consulting services;

· Business plan development;

· Internet support; and

· Marketing.

On average, 2000 entrepreneurs use professional help through one of the regional/local business centres per year (MoE 2010a: 26).
