Greetings!
This is Nilesh Desai, a veteran social entrepreneur passionately working on the
revival of sick MSME units in India for the last 39 years.
There are around 6.3 crore MSME units currently operating in
India of which 10% are sick. When MSME fails due to financial difficulty, it’s
not only an economic loss for its owners but it also leads to the loss of
employment of people working in it.
Unemployment not only have an obvious economic impact, but it
also creates greater skepticism and pessimism at individual level creating
‘erosion of skills’, increasing crime rates and ultimately resulting in social
unrest and disgruntlement. Entrepreneurs’ suicides due to financial distress
are reported to be higher than farmers. Unfortunately, this harsh truth often
remains concealed and is never spoken of in the real world.
I run Hyderabad based non-profit firm Growth Idea Labs,
providing consultancy to MSMEs. also have established two companies SMEGIL
& SMEA Analytics which is working on providing a fintech platform based on
AI & MI giving an analysis of financial statements of MSMEs and guidance to
optimize performance and cost, leading to an increase the average life of the
MSME unit.
Now I am at that stage of life where I trying to give back to
society. I am pretty sure I can create a great impact using my knowledge and
experience and this is what drives my passion towards reviving sick MSMEs. I
again believe my goal can affect thousands of lives in a positive way.
I am putting this culminated knowledge both at a personal and
organizational level in this book, "The Unexplored Goldmine - The
opportunities in the revival of sick MSMEs". The book will be a journey
through case studies, and real-life stories of entrepreneurs who struggle to
tackle difficult problems to keep their firms up and running. It would be a
chance for social entrepreneurs to realize the opportunities that lie hidden in
the revival of sick MSMEs. Additionally, the book will be an eye-opener to
students who aspire to be entrepreneurs in the future, and also for
stakeholders in the MSME sector.
I am also planning on sending copies of the book to all the
colleges and institutes libraries as well as MSME institutes, associations.
