Within the framework of the II Productive Economic Conference Cuba 2022, the Tryp Habana Libre hotel held the Workshop Approaching MSMEs, a space to exchange experiences during this period from different angles.
Among the issues addressed by the panelists are the fissures in the legislation and the importance of adapting it to the needs of the parties, as well as the inclusion of elements that were not taken into account at the beginning of the process and others that arise as a consequence of its evolution.
Data of interest was the look at MSMEs from a gender perspective, only 25 percent of these projects are led by women, and in the opinion of the experts this is due, in part, to the role of women as caregivers and responsible for the home.
Other difficulties identified are the absence of a business ecosystem adapted to the new circumstances, the current economic situation and the obstacles to purchasing products in freely convertible currency as there is no effective state mechanism for the purchase of that currency, as well as misunderstandings by organisms. This exercise to identify the weaknesses of the process is part of the search for solutions to achieve the real and effective integration of all forms of management -whether state or private- and in this way link the entire productive fabric of society to achieve greater development. .
From another perspective, the Scientific and Technological Park of Havana is an example of the benefits of articulating an innovation ecosystem for the execution of R&D projects that impact value chains and generate new products and services.
In this session of the II Productive Economic Conference Cuba 2022 -until June 14- there was also a space for the exchange between delegates and authorities of the Ministries of Domestic Trade and the Food Industry on the island.
