The Role of Local Businesses in Economic Development

Local enterprises and businesses have their role and importance in economic development, especially those who want to run their businesses in a proactive and innovative way. That is, the institution itself begins to create products or services internally to help solve problems, reduce expenses, and increase effectiveness in society. Such local businesses, for example, as local systems for information, information organization, training, or formal programs, allow institutions to find their own solutions to their local problems with the highest technological standards and innovation.

The key role of local business is to transform the institution into an intellectual and innovative environment, where members feel involved as they create products that they themselves are an important part of creating. This will promote business renewal, increase transparency, and create a culture of local intrapreneurship. In the long run, local products can increase efficiency, reduce or reuse costs, and increase team productivity as management knowledge is developed within its institution.

Local business development requires clear plans and entrepreneurial steps. The first step is to identify the main problem that needs to be addressed. The institution must then create a dedicated team for production and testing. The prototype must be built for future testing of the product, then clearly repaired and standardized. If successful, the product could be publicly released or marketed.

Finally, local businesses are not only a way to reduce costs but also bring jobs, a stable economy, and additional income to society by linking knowledge and innovation. They can transform institutions into life-giving systems.
