What is it about?
Although SAEs contribute to economic development of the country, their success factors are not fully understood. The scarcity of empirical studies motivated authors to study the subject matter. This study interviewed 320 owners of the SAEs using the structured questionnaire in four Districts of Bhutan. We conducted factor analysis, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple linear regression. The result showed that Leadership and Management (1), Government Policies and Infrastructures (2), Market and Customer Orientation (3), and Technology Adoption (4) significantly contributed to the success of SAEs. Overall, these factors contributed 32.4% to SAEs success.

Why is it important?
Besides adding scientific knowledge to the existing literature in the Bhutanese context, the findings of this study are valuable for RGoB, other stakeholders, and SAEs owners to make informed decisions towards promoting SAEs development in the country.
Perspectives
I am very excited to write this article with other experienced co-authors. Moreover, there are very limited similar studies in Bhutan, it gave us more energy to work on it. Hope this article will be useful to authorities and entrepreneurs.
