The move is expected to result in the formation of a consortium of business bodies from across the country, to effectively represent their cases with state and central governments.

"The conclave will try to address three major challenges faced by the MSMEs across the country. These are upgrading the technology as well as bottlenecks in marketing and in getting finance," Vasa told media persons in the city.

The National Conclave may also result in the formation of a national consortium of all the apex chamber of commerce in respective states. "It will enable the exchange of ideas among businessmen of different states and even sharing of business opportunities," said Vasa.

The MSME Conclave will showcase capabilities of different sectors of Gujarat and enable businessmen to get orders from within the country and even export orders. It will have Buyer-Seller Meets, B2B meeting, opportunities for vendor development for MSMEs as well as interaction with academia of the premier institutes for higher education in and around Ahmedabad.
