The purpose of study is the assessment of global COVID-19 on small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs) with the case of Technological Incubation Centre (TIC), Ibadan. Three research objectives were raised. A descriptive survey research design was used. The population of the study is 29. Total census survey was adopted as the sampling technique. SPSS software 25 analysis was used to
analyze the data. The study concluded that there has been an increase in all the inputs needed for the production processes at the Centre. Therefore, sales of goods at the period of the COVID-19 have been negatively affected, which has similarly impacted employment generation. It’s recommended that the management of the TIC should assist the businesses to mitigate the adverse effect of COVID-19 while the Nigerian government should consider the SMEs as an important sub-sector that could restore the economy to a period of better economic growth.
