Abstract: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in promoting economic development, particularly by creating employment opportunities and improving local community welfare. However, many MSMEs continue to face challenges in establishing strong brand identities, developing effective marketing strategies, and utilizing digital technologies.

Overall, the program contributed to strengthening the local economy by supporting the sustainable digital transformation of MSMEs.
