Gujarat CM launches Facebook's 'Boost Your Business' programme; asks MSMEs to leverage the platform

Ahmedabad, July 19 (KNN) Recognizing the importance of social media in promoting businesses, Gujarat chief minister, Vijay Rupani, has launched Facebook's 'Boost Your Business' programme at Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (EDII) at Bhat village of Gandhinagar.

Rupani called upon the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to make use of the platform in promoting their products or services across the world through social media apps.

Rupani said that the programme should help one lakh entrepreneurs boost their business, and in turn boost Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Make in India' and 'New India' initiatives while providing impetus to India's economy.

The chief minister said since every region of Gujarat is known for a special business, he wants the industry to grow in places where they have traditionally flourished.
