The West Bengal state micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) department has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT) under which the latter will provide expert training in ten identified sectors with sound export potential. The department plans to impart the IIFT expert training to 100 entrepreneurs in a year. That will be followed by six-month handholding support, according to media reports from the state. The sectors identified include jute, foundry, zari and leather. The MoU was signed at the Digha Business Conclave held in December last year.
