Speaking before the House Energy and Commerce Committee, ICSB spoke of the top trends in entrepreneurship for 2022, emphasizing MSMEs and Humane Entrepreneurship as focus during the COVID recovery period.?MSMEs are Micro-Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises who provide 2/3 of all formal jobs in developing countries and 80% in low-income countries. Humane entrepreneurship can be found in companies whose management embodies equity, empowerment and enablement for their employees.?A culture of such values help generate innovation, appropriate risk-taking and decisive actions producing quality jobs and company wealth.
Resilience was the most popular theme for 2021, and, while the past 12 months have challenged all in the business world, ICSB?still believes that MSMEs and humane entrepreneurship provide the best framework for a recovery. MSMEs are the most flexible, and the most in touch with their local communities. This allows them to extend the principles of frugal innovation further and expands the possibility of what the recovery can look like.
Entrepreneurs seek to build small businesses that match their lifestyles and passions.?The pandemic has opened a new era of opportunity for entrepreneurs. The consequent slowdown afforded many aspiring entrepreneurs the chance to pause and reflect on their careers. Witnessing a world open to new ideas, opportunities, and change, they have made a brave recent decision and catapulted into entrepreneurship. ICSB recommends exploring this new adventure and being strategically prepared for it.
