In this episode, Steve Knapp talks about the Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade (MFAT) funded programme Business Link Pacific (BLP), and the “missing-middle;” those businesses that are too big for microfinance and informal local investors, and too small or too risky for banks or direct investors.
Steve explains how BLP supports business' during their growing phase, so they can reach their full potential, and how growing businesses can access these services.
Steve Knapp is the Director of Business Link Pacific.
