摘要：This study identified the constraints of implementing Technological Innovative Entrepreneurial Development Programmes in Nigeria. This is with a view to improving on the quality of the entrepreneurial development programmes and fast tracking the development of small-scale businesses in Nigeria. One hundred and sixty of 200 small-scale industrialists on the register of the National Association of Small-Scale Industrialist (NASSI) Ondo state chapter were randomly selected for this study. Data were collected from 100 firms through the use of questionnaire, interview schedule and personal observation. Descriptive statistics were employed for data analysis. The results of the study showed that accessibility to the programmes (28.10%) and finance (24.20%) are the major limiting factors on the implementation of the programmes, and lack of awareness of the programmes (3.80%) was the least factor militating against the implementation of the entrepreneurship development programmes. The study concluded that in general, accessibility and finance are the major limiting factors militating against the implementation of Entrepreneurial Development Programmes in Nigeria.
