Small businesses around the world feel ignored by political decision making - Seite 2

"Sage is launching the Forum for Business Builders, and is holding events like today's to make sure the issues facing the world's small businesses are recognized, debated and resolved."

Sage's new Forum, which will go live in the New Year, was launched at a panel event today in Dublin with Ireland's An Taioseach, Enda Kenny. During the event, customers and partners heard from business associations, experts, academics and ministers to discuss how Ireland's entrepreneurs and business builders can be supported to help unlock their economic potential. Sage will hold events around the world to highlight the need for small businesses to be given a platform to get their voices heard in the political sphere.

"Small businesses are the fabric of the Canadian economy, and they are experiencing significant challenges and roadblocks based on our research findings. Addressing these challenges will go a long way in ensuring a bright future for Canada," said Paul Struthers, executive vice president and managing director, Sage Canada. "We will continue to do our part in fostering small business growth, and through our efforts, we hope to inspire more public support for Canadian entrepreneurs."
