As part of its commitment to building and supporting economic growth and development in the country, Diamond Bank, in partnership with SME100, has rolled out strategic capacity development programmes that would boost the productive strength of micro, small and medium scale enterprises, MSMEs.
The bank’s Chief Executive Officer, Uzoma Dozie, stated at a networking event, which held recently in Lagos for MSME operators and stakeholders, that the sector holds the key to rapid economic growth, pointing that the adoption of technology in structuring their businesses is the surest way to business stability and predictable breakthrough.
Speaking on the topic: “The Age of Digital Disruption; Leveraging Technology for Business Growth,” Dozie in his highly engaging session, noted that the need for small businesses to adopt technology in their processes cannot be overemphasised, stressing that technology stimulates productivity while saving time and energy.
“The future of Africa is digital, and technology creates opportunities for the acquisition of useful skills and this should be embraced by all business owners. Business owners should have a platform that will enable them engage their customers from a conversational to a marketing perspective”, Dozie stated.
