Micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises<\/span> (MSMEs) are struggling to survive the significant negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/span> MSMEs suffered most severely while they are the backbone of the economy by absorbing a major share of labor force and contributing to GDP. The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us of the importance of MSMEs with a particular emphasis on resilience as well as inclusiveness and sustainability.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Long-standing challenges facing <\/span>MSMEs include technological literacy and lack of financial resources. <\/span>Adoption of digital technology requires <\/span>the ability to use, manage, understand, and assess technology as well as the access to needed financing<\/span>. Digital technology once adopted successfully is expected to enhance MSMEs\u2019 innovation and competitiveness, which would also ensure MSMEs\u2019 resilience, inclusiveness, and sustainability.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
