Early in 2011, many SME executives were hopeful that the global economy would soon recover. But as each quarter rolled by, it was obvious that it was not going to be the year.

But as we interviewed our customers throughout 2011, many SME executives demonstrated resilience and innovation despite the macroeconomic trends. They focused on improving their businesses through innovative ideas, processes, and technologies.

In this article, we summarize the most read SME newsletter stories over the past months and share the two key innovation trends of the year:
  1. Doing the basics better
  2. Investing only in IT that provides a competitive edge
From cash flow management to enterprise mobility to business intelligence, spend a moment to review the ways your fellow SMEs have beat back the tide of the economic downturn.
