Micro-, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Day

This UN day recognises small businesses and the people who build them. From neighbourhood workshops to growing companies, these enterprises create jobs, keep local economies active and turn ideas into useful products and services.

How it is celebrated: business owners join forums, fairs and training sessions. Discussions explore access to finance, business development and opportunities for people starting their first enterprise.

There is no single worldwide definition of a small business. Countries use different employee and revenue thresholds, so the same company could fall into different size categories.
