Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) represent 90% of companies worldwide and contribute over 50% of global GDP. One in three of those MSMEs are led by women, who face unique challenges to starting and growing a business. To commemorate the United Nations’ #MSMEDay, we worked with CARE to recognize the women-led MSMEs that anchor our communities and inspire our mission to building a more equitable and prosperous world. Whether it’s your favorite restaurant, your neighborhood coffee shop or the artist who made a custom portrait of your pet – small and medium-sized enterprises deserve recognition, today and every day. Explore the stories of women-led MSMEs around the world: https://lnkd.in/e6GtqBNY We want to know – what do MSMEs mean to you? How will you support a MSME today? Share in the comments below. 👇
