local markets and also carve out a separate
exclusive market zone for themselves

The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise (MSME) sector in Tamil Nadu offers a bounty of
opportunities for Korean investors, S. Sivagnanam, Director of MSME, Government
of India, said on Friday.

Inaugurating the ‘Indo Korea Connect 2011' business summit, Mr. Sivagnanam said the
government had identified 173 MSME clusters in various verticals across the State. The Centre
was providing Rs. 37 crore financial support to 15 of these clusters, he said.

Calling for dismantling of bilateral trade barriers to further boost business and investment as
envisaged by the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) between the two
countries, Mr. Sivagnanam said Tamil Nadu was ideally placed as an investment destination in
terms of rapid industrialisation and favourable business climate.

The State, he said, was a major recipient of FDI from Korea, with around 160 Korean
companies operating from Chennai. He cited the example of auto major Hyundai which
produced a million cars in 2010 for export to Asia, Africa and Europe, pumping in a fresh
investment of $ 1.6 billion.

Mr. Sivagnanam identified as potential areas of collaboration sectors such as automotive, ITES,
telecom, higher education, R&D, skills development, textiles and leather. Integration of MSMEs
with Korean clusters would have a synergistic effect, he said.

J. S. Ham, Vice-President, Samsung Electronics, said the CEPA had opened up a new chapter in
the bilateral business relationship. While mutual understanding of the business communities
had grown, much more work was required to strengthen ties between the nations economically
and culturally, he said.

K. Balaji, Managing Director, Kasturi and Sons, said the media landscape in India and Korea
presented a contrasting picture, especially in patterns of media consumption. While there had
been a shift in media consumption from print to Internet and mobile in Korea, in the Indian
scenario print continued to hold the lion's share of advertising revenue, though television was
expected to overtake print over the year, he said.

21
Gireesh Kumar Sanghi, former MP, said the Korean work ethic was characterised by a zeal for
work, innovation and passion for research.

Madhubala Nahar, Director, Indo Korea Connect, said the MSME sector was pivotal to tap into
the $ 50 billion opportunities expected to come into India in the wake of the CEPA. The
business summit was being organised against a backdrop of low awareness about the potential
of the CEPA for business communities of India and Korea, she said. R. Balakrishnan, past
president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, Lee Jae Sang, Director, Korea
Tourism Organisation and Lakhvinder Singh, president, Indo Korea Business and Policy Forum
participated.

 August 24th 2011

In a recent State-wide survey, Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises – Development Institute (MSME-
DI), Chennai, has identified about 15 feasible micro agro enterprises that could enable job-seekers to turn
into job providers.

The survey was conducted in all the 32 districts of Tamil Nadu covering 378 blocks and six blocks of
Puducherry. The resources were divided into 15 broad categories covering more than 30 value added
viable projects with an investment varying from Rs.1 lakh to Rs.1 crore.

MSME-DI has identified agro and allied enterprises, food-based enterprises, floriculture, sericulture,
apiculture, herbal extraction, honey-based value added products, vermicomposting, integrated dairy
farming, value added products from coir and coir pith, rural-oriented servicing centre, rural marketing,
rural BPO, marine products and forest based value added products as the potential areas.

Talking to The Hindu, MSME-DI, Chennai Director, S. Sivagnanam said, “Our objective
is to create opportunities in the villages for economic activity, provide decent employment to the locals,
arrest migration, avoid over flooding of urban population, integrating tradition with modern technology,
provide livelihood option for the down trodden and to alleviate poverty.”

As per the proposal, in the first phase 52 Entrepreneurship Development Programmes (EDP) were rolled
out in Madurai, Dindigul, Virudhunagar, Nagapattinam and Vellore districts. MSME-DI along with
banks offered marketing, technology, finance, mentoring and hand holding services. Special thrust was
given to establish value added enterprises based on local resource endowments by creating necessary
marketing linkages.

“About 20 entrepreneurs were provided training in each EDP for six weeks. In turn, they are expected to
provide jobs to around 5,000 people. On our part, we are providing technology and marketing support.
Indian Bank and Corporation Bank have come forward to provide financial support to the MSME-DI
trained entrepreneurs. This will certainly set a trend in developing agro-based micro enterprises in the
State of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry,” he said.

According to Mr. Sivagnanam, the project covers hilly and forest region to improve the livelihood of
tribals and at the same time to protect the environment and forest resources. As a test case, the project
was launched in the Jawadu hills recently.

“Following the success of our scheme in the Jawadu hills, we will roll it out in other hilly regions of the
State soon. Besides, the second phase of EDP would be kick-started in a month's time,” he said.

Institute works on fostering innovation in MSME sector

S. Sivagnanam, Director, MSME-DI addressing a cluster meet in Chennai on Monday.

With the aim of fostering innovation in micro, small and medium enterprises, the MSME-
Development Institute (MSME-DI) here will chalk out a plan with focus on technology and
quality in all the clusters in Tamil Nadu, said its director, S. Sivagnanam, on Monday.

Delivering the keynote address at CSIR-SERC and MSME Innovation Cluster Meet on ‘Fostering
Innovation in MSMEs' he said most of the clusters suffered for want of appropriate technology,
R&D facility, finance and shortage of skilled manpower. To help the entrepreneurs, MSME-DI
had identified more than 250 clusters in Tamil Nadu, including 70 artisan clusters.

According to him, the National Innovation Council (NIC) took the initiative to link scientific
laboratories, industries and other stakeholders to bring a total transformation in the MSME
sector. The NIC in association with Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR) will
support 50 innovation clusters by the year-end and 150 clusters in the next fiscal. Besides, the
NIC will create a model for transferring the regional MSME clusters into innovation eco-systems
with collaborative partnership.

“The Centre has declared 2010-20 as a Decade of Innovation. This innovation drive is expected
to bring new products, new services, new processes, new business models and in turn create
24
more jobs and ultimately lead to inclusive growth,” he said. Mr. Sivagnanam said the NIC had
adopted two clusters in Tamil Nadu – foundry cluster in Coimbatore and mango pulp cluster in
Krishnagiri. The leather sector at Ambur has been declared Innovation Cluster through the
MSME Ministry. Besides, the MSME-DI on its own with the active participation of CSIR-SERC
identified three clusters to provide immediate intervention“We also plan to come out with a
match-making portal which will serve as a ready reckoner for CSIR laboratories and enterprises
of different sectors. The MSME-DI will be an effective facilitator and a partner to make Tamil
Nadu the numero uno State,” he said.

In his welcome address, Nagesh R. Iyer, Director, CSIR-SERC, Chennai, “The MSME is the real
growth engine for the economy and it has to be supported. The SERC has a lot of tested
technologies, which can be transferred into MSME. Entrepreneurs have to make use of our
expertise.”
