1116 - 1143 cst: Governance is overly complex, so MSMEs get excluded from and taken advantage of in trade agreements
1: What is the problem?
Problem: DEG Rwanda Problem: “While business registration is easy, implementation can be less smooth due to delays in government payments for services or goods delivered, changes in memorandum of understanding (MOU) conditions during contract negotiations, and/or additional tax assessments. Investors also face difficulty in obtaining or renewing work visas for expatriates due to the government’s demonstrated preference for hiring local or EAC residents over third country nationals.” - https://www.trade.gov/country-commercial-guides/rwanda-market-challenges
trainfarb Renting Focus: Difficult to understand what's most important when distracted with too much information related to navigating trade governance. Hard for individuals to participate for their land and homes.
hu3agency Chicago Productivity: burocracy and red tape slows down the ability to form and execute agreements. Difficult for people to learn the skills needed.
ourStory Haiti Creativity: Unable to tell engaging stories to convey value to others. Not teaching what we learn to countries that need support overcoming corrupt government interventions. Missing out on potential investors and contributors that can help their ideas scale faster.
