With providing huge employment opportunities and ensuring regional balance by taking industrialization to rural areas, SME sector employs about 40 percent of India’s workforce and maintains an average growth rate of over 10 percent. Despite being the drivers of the economy, the media has rendered little attention to the challenges faced by the SMEs. Their concerns and issues conveniently get ignored even in the prestigious columns of magazines and newspapers. For long, SMEs have felt the compelling need to voice their concerns. They have pined for a platform which can represent and recognize them for their substantial contribution to India’s growth story.
For these long felt needs, SME WORLD is India’s only magazine dedicated to improve and recognize the Micro Small & Medium Enterprises(MSMEs)ecosystem in the country. It has won wide acclaim for its formidable efforts to address the concerns of the MSMEs in India. Started essentially as a print magazine in August 2008, it eventually graduated to make its digital presence. Completing 10 years, with eight employees, the magazine remained focused and
is today known as 'India's best information and knowledge magazine’ as a singular voice of the sector. Started more as a passion than a commercial proposition, for SME WORLD everything has grown as a natural phenomenon without deviating from its vision.
