The project supports the government of China's ongoing Spark Program, which seeks to upgrade standards of technology and management in China's rapidly growing rural non-state enterprise sector, until recently, largely ignored by support services and still suffering from inadequate access to technology, qualified staff and business-oriented information. The project supports demonstration enterprise modernization subprojects in rural industries, upgrades the "Spark training program" for rural enterprise staff and helps an existing technology information system reorient its focus to small enterprises. It also will strengthen the staffing and management of the Spark Program at national and lower levels.
