Ecosystem support
Scaling up the capacity of multipliers and business support organizations.
What we do
Providing business support organisations and private sector service providers with knowledge and skills to enable MSMEs to implement sustainable business practices.
Why we do it
Business support organisations and private sector service providers at times lack the information, knowledge and skills to promote sustainability effectively and rarely offer specific sustainability-related services that adequately incentivize MSMEs.
How we do it
We provide access to advisory services enabling MSMEs to implement sustainable business practices, on topics such as resource efficiency and circular production, climate resilience, adoption of voluntary sustainability standards and access to green finance and markets.

Emerging Stronger: Good Trade In A Post-Covid-19 World
What are some “lessons learned” from the crisis? How can we use this as an opportunity to hit the reset button and build more resilient, inclusive and sustainable value chains? How can “good trade” be part of the solution?
The Good Trade Summit convened over 1200 participants from the trade and development community, entrepreneurs, business leaders, government officials and inspirational speakers from 120 countries to share experiences, showcase initiatives across ITC’s networks, encourage networking and brainstorm rebuilding a more equitable and sustainable future.
