Abstract

Collaborative partnerships have become a source of hope in tackling complicated and complex societal issues such as underdevelopment facing many local authorities. Through public-private partnership (PPPs), remove interventions between the government, private organizations, and civil society, obstacles impeding business growth in these localities can be removed successfully. Whereas donor agencies and governments in developing countries increasingly propagate local economic development (LED), there are limited cases of LED success. Using an exploratory descriptive case study research design, this chapter explores the reasons why inclusive markets and enterprises' development are unsuccessful in Oshakati and Luderitz and why local authorities aimed at identifying suitable recommendations for improvement. The study concludes that entrepreneurs in Oshakati and Luderitz are unable to diversify and grow their business ideas to achieve inclusive markets due to lack of institutional support, access to finance, innovation, necessary expertise, and other necessary business support services.
