MicroEnterprise Americas magazine (PDF)

MicroEnterprise Americas aims to fill the gap between general business publications that cater to the corporate world, and specialized technical publications that reach only a narrow audience. Along with the latest developments in microbusiness in Latin America and the Caribbean, the magazine covers business leaders; advances in products, services, and technology; and the industry of service providers for micro and small businesses. It looks at how microenterprises survive and grow.
