They will open up new opportunities for youth, women, and small-scale industries, says MSME Minister Kondapalli Srinivas
Andhra Pradesh is set to host five regional MSME conferences from October 7 in preparation for the upcoming CII Partnership Summit-2026 in Visakhapatnam on November 12 and 13. Minister for MSMEs, Kondapalli Srinivas, announced the events on October 1, stating they would serve as a connection between local MSMEs, large industries, and Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs).
The conferences align with Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu's 'One Family, One Entrepreneur' vision and aim to create new opportunities for youth, women, and small-scale industries.
Each regional conference will take place in Visakhapatnam, Kakinada, Guntur, Anantapur, and Tirupati from October 7 to October 26. The conferences will feature MSME exhibitions, buyer-seller meets, and sessions on MSME Policy 4.0 subsidies, loans, and government procurements. The Visakhapatnam, Tirupati, and Anantapur conferences will focus on technology & deep-tech, electronics, and green energy and heavy industries respectively, highlighting the Speed-of-Doing Business reforms and the Single Desk system.
Mr. Srinivas urged aspiring entrepreneurs, startups, self-help group members, students, and MSMEs in Andhra Pradesh to attend the nearest regional conference to capitalize on the offered opportunities.
