The Chairman of CII Western Region Sunil Chordia said that the Government of India gives importance to the MSME sector in its drive to make India a $ 5 trillion economy. He said that MSMEs have driven India to new heights through the basics of low investments, flexible operations and capability to develop good local technology. MSMEs are a vital component of the Indian economy and have made significant contributions to the socio-economic development of the nation. In addition to creating job opportunities, it helps in advancement of rural and under-developed areas of the country, he said.
The CII (Western Region) organized the 8th Edition of the MSME Summit and Exhibition 2022 with an objective to help MSMEs bounce back from tough issues in Environmental Sustainability, Finance, Business Continuity and Exports and to adopt new solutions and make them boom.
