Thus, they require an appropriate legislation, flexible financing, incentives and the support of different organizations. Besides, the conference focused on the management tools and the new sources of finance provided by the office of Punto Pyme.

This event marked the beginning of the second cycle 2016, by which Punto Pyme in close collaboration with the National University of Río Negro offer their support to the entrepreneurs and Pymes of the region, giving them technical advice on the business management of their entrepreneurships or projects.
