The CII has formed a partnership with SAP to equip over 6,400 MSME direct members and over 2 lakh indirect membership from 298 national and regional sectoral industry bodies with digital technologies that will further them to create demand for their products and transact globally.
With the Global Bharat Program, CII members can access the SAP Ariba Discovery network, register themselves as suppliers for free, get sales enquiries and sell their products worldwide.
Additionally, CII members will also digitally upskill their workforce through SAP India’s Code Unnati by accessing more than 240 courses on Digital Financial, Soft Skills, Productivity Technologies etc.
These will be available through an application for people to access via their android smartphone devices, helping them adapt to the new working environments.
“The pandemic has affected the way businesses used to function, pushing organizations to adopt and rely on technology to stay relevant in the market. Our purpose of collaborating with SAP and bringing in the Global Bharat program for our members is to help them to the best of our ability in finding a solid footing during these unprecedented times,” said
Shreekant Somany, Chairman, CII National MSME Council.
“We truly believe that this initiative will help our Indian MSMEs to transform themselves digitally and empower them to take their business to the global level,” said Somany.
“When we launched the Global Bharat program back in June 2020, we set an objective to help Indian MSMEs become globally competitive by enabling them with digital tools and solutions,” added Subramanian Ananthapadmanabhan, Vice President and Head of General Business, SAP Indian Subcontinent.
“We are excited that CII shares our vision to help Indian MSMEs seize this opportunity and emerge from this crisis stronger and more resilient than ever,” he said on 6 Nov 2020 at the announcement of CII-SAP partnership.
