Through the Barangay Development Councils (BDCs), the DTI shall help capacitate Barangay personnel to provide basic business advisory or information dissemination services to MSMEs in the locality.
Also, the DTI —in partnership with the national government agencies, local government units, academe, non-government organizations, private sector, and through the Negosyo Centers — shall promote ease of doing business and provide access to development services for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through Business Counselors in their area of responsibility.
The participants who attended have expressed their gratitude for the conduct of LSP-NSB in their barangay.
“Dakong tabang ang DTI tungod kay karon nga panahon, pandemic, aduna silay mga programa nga ilang gipanghatag ngari sa barangay, ug adunay makatabang sad sila sa mga katawhan labi na sa kadtong mga nagnegosyo nga naundang, ug sa mga bag-o pud karon nga nagbusiness", said Marlon R. Bohol,Brgy. Captain in Tomalistis one of the participants.
[DTI has helped us a lot, specially now that we are in this pandemic, they have programs for our barangay and they are also helping those establishments which are temporary closed, and those who just recently started their businesses.]
