Abstract: Malgré la remarquable performance économique du Cap Vert, le secteur privé y reste dominé par des petites et micro-entreprises ayant un faible pouvoir de creation d'emplois.

Il en ressort qu'il existe un large potentiel pour des partenariats à plusieurs niveaux et plusieurs dimensions, associant des acteurs d'origines différentes et ayant des intérêts divers. De ...
