Anup Bagchi, Executive Director of ICICI Bank, said: “We found from our research that MSMEs understand the benefits that technology brings. They are striving to adopt digital solutions to simplify their business operations so they can focus more on growth. MSMEs also need a holistic platform that meets all their requirements.”
