As hopes for an easing of lockdown restrictions and a return to close to normal life by summer emerge, making plans for the economic recovery is a top priority. Small businesses will be at the heart of the recovery. But fully unleashing the power of small firms will require the right approach from both government and the private sector.
This panel will discuss how we can create a growth economy for entrepreneurs, small businesses and jobs, with special emphasis on the importance of technology and innovation.
