The Jamaica Business Development Corporation (JBDC) yesterday signed three additional memoranda of understanding (MOU) with partnering organisations to develop and provide services to the micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSME) sector through small business development centres (SBDC).
The three new MOUs were signed between the JBDC and its newest partners: The University of Technology (UTech), Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts and College of Agriculture, Science & Education (CASE), which will all house new locations for SBDCs.
