About
MSME Mahotsav 2025

MSME Mahotsav 2025 is dedicated to celebrating and supporting Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and offers a unique platform for trade, knowledge sharing, networking, showcasing innovations, and exploring new business opportunities.  

This year’s theme, “Powering MSMEs through Technology for Growth” focuses on how MSMEs are going digital and adopting new technologies like AI/ Gen AI to drive innovation and achieve profitable growth – in India and overseas and in the process, creating much needed jobs. 

MSMEs are the backbone of Indian economy

Our MSMEs serve as engines of economic growth by creating jobs, promoting entrepreneurship, encouraging innovation, and MSMEs’ contribution to GDP. MSMEs also play a vital role in regional development, export promotion, and reducing income disparities. The MSME sector in India contributes around 30% to the nation’s GDP. Moreover, it contributes about 50% to the total exports of India and provides more than 110 million job opportunities in the country. The health of our MSMEs is vital to the growth and development of India. There is a need to revitalize and reenergize our MSMEs and calls for the maximum support for the sector
