| Indian Business Portal

I am very happy that the Indian Business Portal is in line with the Government of India’s vision for ‘Digital India’ and ‘Make in India’. Also the priority it gives to SMEs, startups and artisans is very much in line with the vision of the Government. The Indian Business Portal will play an important role in facilitating enhancement of India’s trade linkages with the international market.

Whether it is a small entrepreneur, a young entrepreneur, or a rich entrepreneur can ride on this platform to link oneself to the global marketplace. I wish all the best to FIEO and GlobalLinker for this initiative and hope that this will help ecommerce export and import in a big way.

India is home to over 63 million micro, small & medium enterprises contributing 30% of India’s GDP and comprising almost half of the exports. FIEO has designed and developed the Indian Business Portal – a B2B digital marketplace to empower SME exporters and thus take our exports to newer heights.

Businesses of smaller size have always been disadvantaged. But now because of technology the field is now being levelled. If a small business owner or an artisan, someone who traditionally would be considered as lacking resources, could come onto a solution like the Indian Business Portal, create their digital catalogue, find foreign buyers, then the world is at their footstep.
