TechnoServe's work with small and growing businesses (SGBs) in Central America
EVALUATIONS
The Argidius-supported Impulsa Tu Empresa (ITE1) (‘’Boost Your Business”) was the first iteration of an accelerator program run by TechnoServe which has since supported more than 1,000 dynamic and formalising businesses in Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Burkina Faso. The median size of enterprises in the year prior to participation was $87k and the cost per enterprise was $5k-$8k, depending on whether the participant received aftercare.
