State of Entrepreneurship Index in Uganda
The study surveyed a total of 3,062 MSMEs, ensuring a wide representation across different sectors and regions.
In addition, 300 in-depth interviews were conducted with owners and managers to gather qualitative insights and capture personal experiences from all regions of Uganda
The National Entrepreneurship Index (NEI) was created to provide a comprehensive measurement of the state of entrepreneurship in Uganda, helping policymakers, investors, and entrepreneurs understand the strengths and weaknesses of the ecosystem. It serves as a benchmark for evaluating progress and guiding targeted interventions to improve the business environment.
The NEI measures critical aspects of entrepreneurship across eight dimensions, offering a clear view of where MSMEs thrive and where they struggle
The NEI provides a clear assessment across eight dimensions that matter for business owners and policymakers alike. It helps identify areas where MSMEs are performing well and highlights gaps that need to be addressed to foster a more robust and supportive business environment.
