MSME are enterprises that usually employ not more than 250 employees but are responsible for creating more than two-thirds of all jobs globally.
It was marked by the United Nations General Assembly in its 74th Plenary in 2017.
The move came after the International Council for Small Business (ICSB) 2016 World Conference Declaration on the urgent need to recognise MSME’s role in global development.
According to the United Nations, formal and informal MSMEs account for 70 per cent of the total employment and 50 per cent of the GDP.
The theme of 2022 is ‘MSMEs - Resilient recovery’.
