    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bengaluru, May 29 (KNN) &lt;/strong&gt;The India MSME Conclave 2025 will be held from May 30 to June 1 at Tripuravasini, Palace Grounds, Bengaluru, organisers announced at a press conference on Wednesday. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The three-day event aims to strengthen the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises sector across Karnataka and India through collaboration, innovation, and growth initiatives.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The conclave is jointly organised by three prominent industry bodies: the Federation of Karnataka Chambers of Commerce &amp;amp; Industry (FKCCI), Karnataka Small Scale Industries Association (KASSIA), and the Peenya Industries Association (PIA). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The initiative serves as a comprehensive platform bringing together diverse stakeholders from the MSME ecosystem.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Speaking at the press conference, FKCCI President M G Balakrishna, KASSIA President M G Rajagopal, and PIA President Shiva Kumar R highlighted the crucial role MSMEs play in contributing to India's GDP and employment generation. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The leaders emphasised the sector's significance in driving economic growth and job creation across the country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;A notable demand emerged from the organisers for the establishment of a dedicated Railway MSME Park designed specifically for enterprises operating in the railway sector. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The proposal is based on the fact that MSMEs currently supply 50 percent of railway components and parts. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;According to the organisers, such a specialised park would address industry-specific requirements while substantially boosting industrial growth and employment opportunities within the railway segment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The conclave will feature participation from MSME entrepreneurs, public sector undertakings, large corporations, financial institutions, policymakers, and industry experts. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The event is designed to bridge existing gaps between various stakeholders and promote indigenous manufacturing in line with the government's 'Make in India' initiative, while fostering comprehensive vendor development programs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The program will address strategic initiatives to expand the network of MSME parks nationwide, enhance accessibility to policy support and financial assistance, and promote sector-specific training programs to address skill gaps in the industry. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Key focus areas will include automation, robotics, machine tools, electronics, renewable energy, and packaging sectors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;More than 250 MSME stalls will display products and services throughout the event. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Additionally, the conclave will feature curated business-to-business meetings, expert-led seminars, and practical workshops designed to facilitate networking opportunities, skill development, and knowledge sharing among participants.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;(KNN Bureau)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
