Whether we realise it or not, SMEs play a critical role in this country and the livelihoods of many in Singapore depend on them. Making up 99% of businesses in Singapore, SMEs employ 70% of Singapore’s workforce and contribute to nearly half of our GDP. They are the businesses that keep Singapore going. This is why we started the 99%SME movement – to help small and medium businesses become stronger together.
What is 99%SME?
99%SME is a nationwide movement to rally all of Singapore to discover and support small and medium businesses.
How will 99%SME help small and medium businesses?
We’re making it easier for SMEs like you to market your business online and get more customers. We want to help you take this first step to go digital, and support you along the way.
Why should SMEs join?
With a common platform to showcase products and services, it is now easier for SMEs to market their business and reach out to more customers. There are no strings attached. Participation is free.
What features and benefits can SMEs expect this year?
We created a dedicated eMarketplace for SMEs to open a new window to more opportunities. SMEs can conduct online transactions immediately and enjoy the following:
