Abstract	Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) form the foundation of industrial development and employment generation, particularly in emerging economies. The present research explores the transformation of traditional MSMEs into modern, technology-enabled business units. It focuses on key enablers such as digitization, government support, globalization, and innovation. Using a mixed-methods approach, the paper evaluates the current status of MSMEs, identifies persistent challenges, and recommends strategies to enhance their competitiveness and resilience. The findings emphasize the urgent need for digital capacity building, inclusive finance, and ecosystem-based support for MSMEs to thrive in a rapidly changing economic environment.
