We’re celebrating ourselves, our clients and our ecosystem today!
Make a purchase with a small business and help them wrap up the financial year on a high. More than 95% of Australian businesses are classed as small, so there are plenty of opportunities to support a Micro/Small/Medium Enterprise today.
Did you know Micro Small and Medium Enterprises Day is a United Nationals global event?
This year the theme is ‘Enhancing the role of Micro-, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) as drivers of Sustainable Growth and Innovation’
The UN says:
Micro-, small and medium-sized enterprises are key sources of jobs, income, and local growth—especially for women, young people, and vulnerable groups. Their size and flexibility help build strong, fair, and sustainable communities.
MSMEs account for 90% of businesses, 60 to 70% of employment and 50% of GDP worldwide. As the backbone of societies everywhere they contribute to local and national economies and to sustaining livelihoods, in particular among the working poor, women, youth, and groups in vulnerable situations.
MSMEs hold the potential to transform economies, foster job creation, and promote equitable economic growth if given adequate support. MSMEs Day aims to highlight their pivotal role and explore opportunities for their further advancement.
