Digital Connect Center to support MSMEs in Orange Walk

Posted: Thursday, March 2, 2023. 3:16 pm CST.

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Today, a Digital Connect Center was inaugurated in San Estevan, Orange Walk.

The Centers are designed to support Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) providing a space for networking, skills building and knowledge sharing.

Prime Minister John Briceño says that the Government’s Plan Belize agenda is rebuilding a more resilient Belize through technology.

“PlanBelize is rebuilding a more resilient Belize through innovation, technology, and establishing supporting enabling environment that will ensure our micro small and medium enterprises succeed,” the Prime Minister noted.

“Covid-19 taught us that technology is inescapable if we are to become sustainable and resilient to crises, whether national, environmental or global health situations, he added.

The centers are a collaboration between BELTRAIDE, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the Ministry of E-Governance.

“These centers are coupled with our other incentive programmes, which include the One-Off Fiscal Incentive for MSMEs granting exemption from import duty, revenue replacement duty or excise duty on goods with an import value of up to one million dollars.  The goal is to ensure support and space that will secure success economically, job creation and self sufficiency,” the Prime Minister said.

The Prime Minister says that the Government of Belize remains committed to developing business and digital skills and stimulating opportunities in our rural communities.
