As of the end of October 2014, there were totally 97 small-medium enterprises applying for registering on GISA and 37 enterprises registered successfully.

After being registered on GISA and growing up, small-medium enterprises can head to the planning of going to the Emerging Market or IPO if the operating scale meets specific criteria.
