Success Stories

Link to Stories

Entrepreneurs exist in developing countries where the Walleighs have visited, just as in developed countries. But they face many more challenges. TechnoServe enables entrepreneurship among: subsistence-level farmers to operate as cash-crop businesses; agricultural processors (e.g., grain mills) to efficiently process hundreds of smallholder farmers’ crops; cooperatives to link to markets; and urban businesses to expand their horizons. Africa and Latin America’s entrepreneurial spirit is the foundation for hope for the future.
