Most Micro, Small and Medium enterprises in India face significant challenges in integrating technological tools needed to achieve operational efficiency, which hampers their overall competitiveness in an increasingly digital marketplace. MSMEs, in particular, also need to adopt AI and big data analysis into their business operations to stay competitive. MSMEs face a wide range of issues related to systems and processes, information and data management, scalability, innovation, and maintaining competitiveness in the evolving digital economy.
The MSMEs of India are a very critical element in India’s path to Economic Prosperity, and the digital divide poses a credible threat to the entire set of social and economic benefits accruing to India, all dependent on their success.
In response to this critical issue, the India CIO Taskforce aims to help assimilate and disseminate learnings and best practices from corporates, multi-nationals and larger companies who are successfully harnessing these technologies.
The program will feature various sessions, including engaging panels, skill-building opportunities, and the participation of government & business leaders and dignitaries. It will provide practical advice and connections for Indian Entrepreneurs & MSMEs looking to successfully incorporate AI into their business operations.
The objective is to empower MSMEs by bridging the digital divide, enabling them to integrate advanced technologies into their operations by facilitating knowledge sharing and best practices from industry leaders and enhance the competitiveness, scalability, and innovation potential of MSMEs.
We curate and share insights from larger corporations, multinational companies, and industry leaders who have successfully implemented AI and big data solutions.
By addressing systemic challenges, we help MSMEs adopt innovative digital tools that boost their competitiveness in domestic and international markets.

Indian MSMEs are pivotal to the nation’s economic growth. However, many struggle to integrate cutting-edge technologies like big data analysis and artificial intelligence (AI) into their business operations, which affects their competitiveness in an increasingly digital marketplace. Challenges such as limited resources, inefficient systems, poor data management, and a lack of scalability often hinder their ability to innovate and compete globally.
Recognizing the critical role of MSMEs and the need to bridge the digital divide, the India SME Forum has established the India CIO Taskforce. This initiative is designed to help Indian MSMEs successfully incorporate big data and AI into their processes, enabling them to thrive in the digital age.
