In the year since its revitalization, the agency has facilitated the creation of 6,500 micro-enterprises and provided training to 30,000 individuals across the country.<\/p>\n<p>According to Director-General Bilal Achache, the ESA is playing a vital role in strengthening the network of micro-enterprises, which constitute approximately 97% of Algeria&#8217;s 1.3 million businesses. <\/p>\n<p>Speaking on national radio, Achache highlighted the growing interest in the agency&#8217;s programs, particularly among graduates of vocational training programs. He noted that these graduates represent around 70% of project holders registered with the ESA, demonstrating the increasing importance of vocational training in fostering entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n<p>The ESA aims to support the creation of 10,000 micro-enterprises annually. Achache emphasized the crucial role of industrial subcontracting, which currently accounts for 27% of the agency&#8217;s activities, as a key pathway for integrating micro-enterprises into the broader economy. The agency aspires to become a central driver of growth through localization programs and structured projects.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the ESA is developing a digital platform designed to serve as an open marketplace for economic data exchange and a promotional space for micro-enterprises. The platform already features over 4,562 registered businesses, with plans for further expansion.<\/p>\n<p><em>The ESA&#8217;s initiatives are expected to contribute significantly to Algeria&#8217;s economic diversification and job creation efforts.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/?cat=1\">More Algeria articles on DZWatch<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\">DZWatch &#8211; Your News Portal<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Algiers, Algeria &#8211; The Entrepreneurship Support Agency (ESA) has reported significant progress in its efforts to bolster Algeria&#8217;s micro-enterprise sector.
