Vibrant MSME 2025: Leadership and Sustainable Growth in Focus
This volume presents the proceedings of the INDAM–KJSIM International Conference 2025, held on 12–13 September 2025 at the K J Somaiya Institute of Management, Mumbai, India, under the theme “Vibrant MSME 2025: Leadership and Sustainable Growth in Focus.” Jointly organized by the Indian Academy of Management (INDAM) and K J Somaiya Institute of Management, the conference served as a distinguished platform for scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and entrepreneurs to exchange ideas on the future of India’s Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
The proceedings capture research and dialogue around the three core sub-themes of the conference—Business Growth, Circular Economy & Sustainability, and Leadership & Succession—reflecting the evolving priorities of the MSME sector in line with India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat and the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. The book features empirical studies, conceptual papers, and case analyses across domains such as strategy, finance, human resources, operations, marketing, and general management, highlighting innovation, resilience, and inclusive growth.
