Addressing the gathering, Governor Bandaru Dattatreya said that from a craftsman to a start-up in the urban area, smart solutions come from micro, small and medium enterprises. Today, MSME not only includes manufacturing and service industries, but also includes trade. This is the effort of only entrepreneurs like you. This is what fuels our economy. At the same time, your contribution to job creation and as a taxpayer is important.

The Governor said that the life of an entrepreneur is full of challenges. In the midst of these challenges, the restraint, courage, risk and standing in the midst of changing technology is very inspiring. In today’s global economy, a good eco-system is available in our country due to the hard work done by the entrepreneurs. He is respected all over the country. This is the result of that development and innovation have gained momentum. If we talk about statistics, the MSME sector, which provides more than 15 crore jobs with 30 percent share in India’s total GDP and 50 percent share in total exports, has become the need of the hour. At present, more than 7 crore MSME units have got their “Udyam Registration” done, while about the same number of units are still unregistered.
