Description
This report outlines the systemic context of tourism and then examines the business development needs of small and medium tourism enterprises (SMTEs), paying special attention to the needs of smaller scale and micro businesses; the sector’s prevalent type in developed and developing economies alike. The needs of women entrepreneurs were also of specific interest, since gender barriers preventing women’s full economic participation require particular address.
