dc.description.abstractThis study examines how how technological and strategic intelligence affect SME performance in Nigeria's South-South region.Targeting SMEs, the research used the Nassiuma (2000) formula to determine the sample size and employed multiple regression and ANOVA for analysis. Findings show that technological intelligence negatively affects SME performance, with an R- square value of 0.513 indicating that TEI and STI explain 51.3% of the performance variation. Specifically, a one-unit increase in TEI results in a 0.119 unit decrease in performance, while a one-unit increase in STI leads to a 0.166 unit increase. The model's significance is confirmed by an F-stat. of 13.605 (p = 0.000) and a Durbin-Watson statistic of 1.933, indicating no significant autocorrelation. The study concludes that strategic intelligence enhances SME performance, whereas technological intelligence appears detrimental. Recommendations include improving SMEs' technological capabilities, conducting comparative regional studies, integrating additional variables in future research, and performing longitudinal studies to understand the long- term effects on SMEperformance.
