Great to attend @COSBOA’s State of Small Business event and catch up with Senator Rebekha Sharkie, Anne Aly and Daniel Mulino.
A key takeaway: Digital transformation is well advanced, with 85% of businesses using at least one digital tool.
Small businesses that embrace digital tools are more productive, more resilient and setting the pace for stronger economic performance.
ACCAN will continue to advocate for more competition, fairer practices and simple complaint avenues for digital tools for the consumers and small businesses who increasingly rely on these services.
