Dear Members,

Greetings from FICCI FLO!!!

It is with great enthusiasm that I invite you to join us for an insightful virtual session on Loans for MSMEs, under the ambit of the FLO MSME Assist Cell, taking place on October 14, 2024 from 3:30 pm via Zoom.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in driving economic progress by contributing to GDP, creating jobs, and fostering innovation. However, the key to sustaining and growing MSMEs often lies in access to finance. This session aims to provide the critical knowledge needed to help you navigate the financial landscape, especially in understanding how to obtain loans for your business.

We are honored to have a distinguished panel of experts who will share their knowledge and guide us through various aspects of MSME financing:

• Ms. Lakshmi Ravindran, COO of Invoice Mart, will offer valuable insights on invoice discounting and how this tool can be leveraged by MSMEs for working capital.

• Mr. Ankur Parwal, Product Head of the Business Banking Group at ICICI Bank, will take us through the various loan products available to MSMEs and offer a banking perspective on supporting small businesses.

• Mr. Jasmeet Arora, Chief Growth Officer at Indifi Technologies, will provide an overview of collateral free loans, alternative lending platforms and how they are helping bridge the financial gap for MSMEs in India.

This event, led by Sucheta Shah, Initiative Lead of FLO MSME Assist Cell, aims to empower our members with the knowledge and tools necessary to make informed decisions about business financing. FLO's initiatives, including this one, reflect our continuous efforts to support entrepreneurs, particularly women, in overcoming financial hurdles and achieving their full potential.

We encourage all members to join this valuable session and gain insights that could make a significant impact on your business. Register through the link below:
