The network will seek to update regularly the Trade4MSMEs website, a platform that helps small companies find trade-related information and improve their ability to trade internationally. The platform also helps policymakers design measures tailored to the needs of small companies. Trade4MSMEs can be accessed here.

Ambassador José Luis Cancela of Uruguay, Coordinator of the Informal Working Group on MSMEs, said the objective of the Trade4MSMEs network is to facilitate further collaboration among international organizations, to identify new tools to help MSMEs trade and to explore the possibility of joint projects. The network plans to meet annually to maintain regular communication and to discuss new opportunities.
