EDII Reports 117 (January - March 2022)

Abstract

From the Director General’s Desk: Ensuring Sustainability for MSMEs - EDII has been working in the area of MSME growth and competitiveness for almost 40 years now. The issue of sustainability and growth have always been the pain points for MSMEs. MSMEs are often hard pressed for resources and hence reel away, several times, in the absence of protectionism, thus unable to survive competition. Adopting technologies, introducing measures that help them meet global standards is often difficult for MSMEs. Some strategic approaches, however, have proved relevant in terms of imparting competitive edge to MSMEs.
