Export Barbados pushes entrepreneurship to industrialisation

The Barbados Investment and Development Corporation (BIDC), Export Barbados, wants to see entrepreneurs evolve from entrepreneurship to industrialisation to build productive capacity.

This was highlighted during the handover of a US$5 000 ($10 000) cheque to support the University of the West Indies International Undergraduate Students’ Leadership Conference and Entrepreneurship Exhibition, taking place in Jamaica from September 23 to 25.

Chief Executive Officer of Export Barbados BIDC, Mark Hill, said the sponsorship marks an investment not just in entrepreneurship, but in industrialisation.
