27 June marks the annual celebration of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
Resilient recovery is the focus of this year’s events. We honour the entrepreneurs in societies everywhere as they face the triple threat of Covid, conflict and climate.
This is the fifth anniversary of MSME Day, which the UN General Assembly created to build awareness of the contribution of small businesses to job creation, economic growth and thriving communities.
The International Trade Centre is a leader of the global celebration of this international day, together with small businesses, governments and civil society.
Programme
ITC focuses on four priority areas to scale up support to small firms, for MSME Day and beyond. We ask all of you who celebrate MSME Day to do the same – and focus on women, youth, digital and green initiatives. This the key to creating a wave of ‘good trade’ that is truly inclusive and sustainable.
