Interactive Technology Software and Media Association
We envisage a dynamic, high-profile future for the Indian ICT SMEs. Sheer
talent and capacity for work are already in place - we believe great strides
can be made, with the right encouragement. Specifically, the lack of international
recognition and access for SMEs, the dearth of cohesive standards, the
bureaucratic structure of larger organizations and the fragmented nature
of the industry have to be overcome.
Our mission is to aid the SMEs and the Industry in general to overcome
these road-blocks. We undertake R&D initiatives, including new technology
recognition and adoption, enabling the development of strategic business
partnerships, providing a framework for effective networking, laying down
the groundwork for international expansion as well as through advocacy
in a variety of high-level national and international fora.
