At Shell LiveWIRE Brunei, supporting Small and Growing Businesses (SGBs) is at the heart of our mission to stimulate economic growth and foster entrepreneurship in the country. SGBs, which have moved beyond the startup phase but are still scaling, represent a critical sector for job creation and innovation. However, they often face challenges in accessing capital, resources, and markets, which limits their potential to grow and create a lasting impact. Our programs are designed to address these barriers by providing mentorship, funding, and tailored support that helps entrepreneurs navigate these challenges and accelerate their business development. Through initiatives like Startup 673 and our collaboration with national programs, we aim to create a vibrant ecosystem where SGBs can thrive. By tapping into international networks and mentorship, we help these businesses leverage global opportunities while sustaining local relevance. Our vision at Shell LiveWIRE Brunei is to empower these growing enterprises with the tools and connections they need to scale, ultimately contributing to the diversification of Brunei’s economy and the creation of a sustainable, entrepreneur-driven future.
