The results from the research process have identified that both the ICT and the Tourism sectors have significant potential for job creation and economic development. Neither of the sectors has achieved their full potential which indicates that there is further room for entrepreneurs to develop and grow.
Through the research process it is clear that both sectors are growing significantly and have already made significant contributions to the national and provincial economies. However, as outlined in both the literature as well as the data analysis both sectors are faced with various challenges that are inhibiting growth and job creation.
In this respect it is crucial that Seda looks at the various proposed interventions and begins to implement sector specific interventions. As outlined by the Minister of Finance in the latest budget speech, small business is and will become more and more significant in shaping the development of our economy, hence, measures to assist them with respect to growth, development and long term sustainability need to be put in place.
