Title: Enhancing the role of SMEs in global value chains
Description: The globalization of production processes characterizes the current phase of globalization. Participation in global value chains (GVCs) can bring stability to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and allow them to increase productivity and expand their business. This OECD report identifies the ways in which governments, the business community, and international organizations can facilitate SMEs' gainful participation in global value chains through policies, practices and targeted support programs. It presents the findings of case studies carried out in five industries (the automotive sector, scientific and precision instruments, software, film production and distribution and tourism).--Publisher's description.
