SMB houses were evaluated as one of the advanced innovation practices in the competition conducted by the OECD's Observatory of Public Sector Innovation, experts and shared it on the organization's website as an exemplary model of Azerbaijan (https://oecd-opsi.org/innovations/single-support-service-model-for-smes-sme-house/).

The website of the Observatory of Public Sector Innovation has featured a section dedicated to sharing ideas and innovations since 2003. This section highlights innovations from nearly 90 countries, including the SMB houses managed by the Small and Medium Business Development Agency (KOBİA) in Azerbaijan.

The website presents SMB houses as comprehensive centers offering a range of services to small and medium-sized enterprises, including business planning, startup support, management, and business development. The integration and coordination of public and private sector resources on a single platform to contribute SMB sector growth is recognized as a distinctive and innovative approach.
