In a move to bolster entrepreneurship and MSME development in Nagaland, the Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Business Association of Nagas (BAN) under its PROMO Scheme — a programme for capacity building of Business Member Organisations.

The agreement, signed by L. Mongkum Jamir, President of BAN, and Bhanu Prakash Verma, General Manager, Guwahati Region, SIDBI, focuses on capacity building, improved access to credit, and holistic development of MSMEs in the state.

The partnership reaffirms SIDBI and BAN’s shared commitment to nurturing local enterprises, enhancing entrepreneurial capacities, and promoting sustainable growth in Nagaland’s MSME landscape.
