Background
India has an estimated 64 million MSMEs, 99 per cent of them being micro enterprises. A significant proportion of these enterprises are represented by an estimated 3500 industry associations and chambers of commerce also called Business Member Organizations (BMOs). The BMOs have individual entrepreneurs, firms, other BMOs, etc. as members, to whom they provide variety of business related services to promote their competitiveness. Over the years, BMOs are playing an important role in promoting the concepts of responsible business among MSMEs as well as important sustainability linked national and global agendas in deeding the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations.
