Decoding Your Entrepreneurial DNA

The MSME industry of India is the pride of the nation and the heart of the business world.

This event primarily aims to provide a platform for highly evolved prospects & qualified investors and entrepreneurs from across India, neighbouring countries and delegations from the other parts of the world to meet face-to-face with some of the most accomplished business ideas, attend unparalleled business summits and seminars and learn more about India and the fast-growing MSME industry in India.

It will see 50+ business experts from India and abroad who will share new ideas, trends and business opportunities to enrich the business community. More than 200 exciting business opportunities from hottest sectors including franchising, property and start-up industry will be presented through this expo. Top investors from South India are going to attend this show.

A Show for One and All

Building an entrepreneurial ecosystem for starting up, building a sustainable business, youth Empowerment and new age business ideas to grow are some of the things this summit hopes to achieve and make the entrepreneurial journey of any aspiring entrepreneur as exhilarating as it should it be. It also helps young learners gain vital experiences for their entrepreneurial growth and nurturing.

Franchise & Retail Opportunity Show has undergone a revamp and is now FRO. Led by Franchise India, FRO is set to launch its new avatar in Chennai as Pudu Chennai, 2018.

This one is something that shouldn't be missed more so because India is now on the threshold of entering the age of start-ups, franchises like never before!
