SHAH ALAM, July 13 — The Selangor State Development Corporation’s (PKNS) BizClub networking programme BizMatch Mega 2.0 is touted as the best platform for entrepreneurs to develop their business networks.
Its chief executive officer Datuk Mahmud Abbas said via the programme, entrepreneurs under the PKNS’ Entrepreneur Development Unit (BPU) can meet and interact directly with selected agencies to develop their business.
“As an organisation that takes cognisance of human capital development, PKNS has spearheaded this initiative in order to boost business activities in the community.
“The various programmes organised by PKNS BPU help to create new opportunities for entrepreneurs to venture further and to empower them to develop their businesses to a higher level,” he said at the programme’s launch which was officiated by Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari, earlier today.
