E-IEM will be a forum for MSMEsto sell products quicklydomestically and abroad. So  the  problems  faced  by MSMEscan  be  overcome. Thisscientific  paper  uses  secondary and  primary  datawith a qualitative descriptive writing method. To create the validity of information about the E-IEM application,researchers plan to work with the East Java Provincial Government Communication Committee to get the data.
