Munene Vice Chancellor ZETECH University said that the day long event attracted small and medium size entrepreneurs who gained knowledge in business management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne of the things &nbsp;that we have seen is that most businesses start and collapse within &nbsp;a year or two,\u201d Munene said. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He revealed that the reason for the capacity building is to empower different business groups in the immediate neighborhood of &nbsp;ZETECH &nbsp;Ruiru campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe want to ensure that when Kiambu County extends funds to SMEs, they don\u2019t collapse,\u201d Munene added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\"

collaborating with the central government and the Kiambu county government to ensure \u00a0\u00a0that businesses in Ruiru are not disadvantaged in terms of not having knowledge on running an

of the country is facing a serious people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have a lot of compassionate borrowing where people don\u2019t use loans for businesses and a lot of people are money listed on CRB
