Start-up funding critical to success

I spent the better part of last week in Uganda, attending an investment conference. As is frequently the case, the conversation ended up in the often touted area of entrepreneurship. I know I have been beating the drums of entrepreneurship for close to two years now.

But as important as the Micro Small and Medium Enterprise (MSME) community is to getting our economy to the next level, I think it is equally important to acknowledge that the odds are still heavily stacked against most entrepreneurs.
