MSMEs that carry out business or partner with investors or large businesses reduce unfair business competition that can benefit both parties. However, along with the development of technology and people's habits, business actors, especially the MSME sector, are doing various activities to increase turnover by carrying out various business strategies so that their business can continue.

The research method used is descriptive normative legal research. As a result, the new model of the compass network in empowering MSMEs by accelerating the network, roadmap mode, and images can increase MSME production and be free from the influence of an uncertain economic situation.
