This book examines the effectiveness of Small Business Support programmes in South Africa and addresses the challenges and other fundamental issues of market failure. The argument is that most intervention programmes do not always translate into positive economic development. With that, this book discusses and presents theory and conceptual models used to measure the effectiveness of a state grant-funded programme, and foregrounds perspectives and objectives of the programme from implementation, evaluation and performance dimensions.
