CO NNECT

Dear Entrepreneurs,

It is my pleasure to present you the activity report of SME Chamber of India for

the year 2018. We have organised various activities and provided platforms to

SMEs, Start-Ups, Young and Women Entrepreneurs for enhancement of

business contacts, knowledge and business growth at National and

International level as well as interface with Senior Executives from Corporates,

MNCs, Banks, Financial Institutions, Policy makers, Thought Leaders,

Technocrats and Diplomats from various countries.

We have observed many SMEs are still struggling to avail bank finance,

business advisory services, lack of knowledge about company affairs, GST

formalities, compliances, labour laws, affordable advanced and patented

technology, identifying appropriate business partners, entering into global

market and affordable industrial land in various states as well as incentives and

schemes of various Departments of Government of India and States. In this

regard, Chamber will be taking practical steps for imparting knowledge and

promotional activities for the empowerment of SMEs.

SME Chamber of India has also taken initiatives to support SMEs to compete

with global SMEs by creating awareness programs and educate them to utilise

Digital marketing eco-system, Advanced Technology, Industrial Automation,

Internet of Things (IOT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) (Machine Learning),

Robotics Process Automation (RPA), Virtual/Augmented/Mixed Reality,

Sensors, 3D Printing, 3D Visualisation, Mobile Internet and Cloud, Big Data

Analytics/Open Data, Blockchain ready For Industrial Revolution 4.0 and other

avenues to improve their quality and productivity for better business growth.

This will be useful for creating more jobs and development of quality

entrepreneurial leadership amongst SMEs.

We will be focusing on various executive programs for enhancement of

capabilities, skill and scale of SMEs for better performance to contribute in the

era of “New India”. We will also emphasise on the policy change and policy

implementation of Central Government as well as State Governments to

provide support to SMEs and industries for enhancement of manufacturing

activities to achieve target growth of the Nation.

I invite Entrepreneurs, Start-Ups, Young and Women Entrepreneurs to join the

mission of the Chamber and also appeal to Heads of Corporates, PSUs and

Policy Makers to strengthen SMEs to achieve success at National and

International markets.

The inauguration of the Summit was conducted at the hands of Mr

R.M Mishra, Additional Secretary & Development Commissioner,

Ministry of MSME, Government of India and his stellar inaugural

address spoke volumes of the conducive business ecosystem that

the Ministry of MSME is setting out to achieve . To motivate,

inspire and be an inspiration to the dreams and passions of SMEs

in that they focus from local to global and if they can dream it, they

can do it. SMEs should have easy access to finance and they must

create goodwill by working in an innovative and professional

manner and be recipients of conducive funding to stimulate their

growth with greater awareness to technology, quality and

awareness. Knowledge is the key and provides the wisdom to

sense opportunities in advance with risk perception and this is

where the SME Chamber of India is doing a wonderful job. SMEs

must adapt to change and be receptive to the Internet of things,

artificial intelligence and innovative technologies to make them

grow global as India is the global hotspot of the future.

And in the process, we must assist and help SMEs to

metamorphosize from ‘a moth to a butterfly’.

Welcome Address

Mr Chandrakant Salunkhe , Founder and President of SME

Chamber of India and SME Export Promotion Council in his

welcome and keynote address reiterated that SMEs must be given

a level playing field to reach their potential , as 8.3% GDP growth

achieved in the first quarter of this year deserves full credit to the

SME sector . And to reach double digit figures we must generate

conducive conditions to spur realistic growth of start-ups and

entrepreneurs and create avenues of opportunities and promote

SMEs to go global as is the case in China and South Korea .

We have to support and strengthen SME manufacturing industries

and this is why Pune was chosen as the venue for this Summit as it

is an important manufacturing hub. SMEs face many problems,

namely, capital market access in terms of SME stock exchange due

to insufficient listing, private equity issues and sluggish

enhancement of credit to MSMEs. They also face technology

transfer problems and skill building and in the process lose out in

the manufacturing process. Of MSMEs, the majority are in the

micro sector, followed by the small sector and the least in the

medium sector.

We have to develop a credible system for funding in time and to tap

the local and the global market. Another important issue is that

land is not easily available and this hinders industrial growth. To

achieve this, we must set up land banks, industrial parks, with

best quality infrastructure conducive to electricity, water and

drainage and educate and induce farmers and private land

owners to allocate land for industrial growth. We must tap smaller

cities as is done in Japan, China and South Korea and to induce

these countries to invest in India. To initiate this process, the SME

Chamber of India will conduct 42 programmes in 42 cities this year

to create new potential opportunities in joint ventures, technology

transfers, contract manufacturing and create conducive match

making with foreign companies. The sky is the limit for the

development and double digit growth of SMEs to make India the

global hotspot.

Keynote Address

H.E. Mr. Tang Guocai – Consul General, Consulate-General of P.R.C in Mumbai is addressing the delegates on "Supporting SMEs to
