Jakarta (B2B) - International Council for Small Business (ICSB) Indonesia diingatkan tentang peran dan tugas pokoknya sebagai organisasi nirlaba non pemerintah mendukung pengembangan kewirausahaan di Indonesia bersama empat pilar pendukungnya yakni akademisi, peneliti, pemerintah dan pelaku bisnis.
“Ini bukan organisasi pemerintah akan tetapi ICSB akan bekerja sama dengan policy maker lain yang konsen membina UKM. Saya bangga sekali karena pak menteri akan kawal kita terus,” kata Founder ICSB Indonesia, Hermawan Kartajaya di Jakarta, Jumat (30/11) dalam sambutannya pelantikan pengurus ICSB Indonesia periode 2018 - 2020 yang dihadiri oleh Menteri Koperasi dan UKM, AAGN Puspayoga.
Menurutnya, ICSB sebagai organisasi internasional nirlaba yang berpusat di Washington, AS, didirikan untuk membantu pengembangan UKM di seluruh dunia termasuk Indonesia.
Presiden ICSB Indonesia, Jacky Mussry mengajak para pemangku kepentingan bersama-sama membina UKM agar bisa lebih kompetitif, mengingat potensi dan jumlah UKM di seluruh Indonesia begitu besar, namun belum diimbangi tingkat daya saing di pasar lokal dan internasional.
“ICSB akan berupaya memberikan kontribusi strategis kepada UMKM agar mereka lebih kompetitif," kata Jacky M.
