Helping Millions of Entrepreneurs Go Digital

As the pandemic rapidly moves the economy online, millions of microentrepreneurs around the world must gain the digital tools and skills they need to adapt and rebuild their livelihoods. Going digital can help vulnerable small businesses find new customers, become visible to financial institutions, and access the benefits and security of the digital economy.
