As an emerging market, South Asia holds great potentials \u2013after all the region\u2019s economies are driven by their MSMEs,totaling more than 70 million. Partnerships as these therefore are the much needed spur for the region\u2019s MSMEs to step into next levels. This agreement is also an important milestone in post-COVID industrial and skills development for Sri Lankan MSMEs as it also facilitates premium European trade, craft, industry knowledge transfer to them. We at COSMI are very much looking forward to work with EIVHGI especially given the Trade\u2013Crafts\u2013Industry footprint of the Budapest based EIVHGI has\u201d COSMI President Rajabdeen added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Founded in 1980, EIVHGI (Europ\u00e4ischer Interessenverband Handel-Gewerbe-Industrie) is a powerful Trade \u2013 Crafts \u2013 Industries entrepreneur group represented within one of the most historical Chambers of Commerce of Europe-the Budapest based Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry. EIVHGI has many elected representatives in the Hungarian Chamber and is a significant voice within it. Established in 1850, the Hungarian Chamber itself is one among the 26 full member Chambers of Commerce of the powerful AECCI (Association of European Chambers of Commerce and Industry).
