TOPIC : Cluster-based approach for SMEs
Posted on 26 June 2007 at 15:00:00

The Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) has recommended a five-point strategy to boost development of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) through the cluster-based approach.

These points are technology and quality upgrade, low-cost financing, linkages between Indian and overseas SME clusters, marketing and export promotion and training, and skills upgrade.

The industry chamber feels that the cluster-based approach should move up the value chain to a new trajectory by integrating the five suggested elements.

It is of the view that lack of an inter-institutional synergy, dearth of committed NGOs and industry bodies, and paucity of good service providers have led to limited success of various initiatives undertaken so far.
