Entrepreneurs In Uruguay Benefit From Un-assisted Empretec Programme

11 November 1991

Until recently, many countries in Latin America relied on state and para-state enterprises as the main force in the national economy. Now, governments are actively encouraging the growth of private enterprises. The UN Center on Transnational Corporations is supporting a new breed of entrepreneur through training and follow-up assistance. The programme, called EMPRETEC, has successfully assisted businesses in Uruguay, from quail-egg farming to computer software production.
