    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Puducherry, Oct 23 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; Puducherry is set to host a Reverse Buyer-Seller Meet (RBSM) on October 30 31 under the World Bank-supported RAMP (Raising and Accelerating MSME Performance) Programme, aimed at promoting exports by local MSMEs and providing direct access to international markets.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The two-day event is being organised jointly by the Southern Region of the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO), established by the Ministry of Commerce, and the Puducherry Industrial Promotion, Development and Investment Corporation Limited (PIDIC). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The initiative seeks to enhance the export capacity of MSMEs and startups in Puducherry, thereby strengthening their contribution to Indias global trade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Over 25 buyers from 16 countries &amp;mdash; including Australia, Canada, Singapore, South Africa, UAE, Spain, Vietnam, and Mauritius &amp;mdash; will meet with more than 300 MSME exporters from the region, The Hindu reports.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Participating enterprises cover a wide range of sectors, including agriculture, food processing, spices, herbal products, cosmetics, handloom and handicrafts, textiles, engineering, machinery, chemicals, plastics, pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, and packaging materials.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;At the RBSM, buyers will receive advance product profiles of participating MSMEs to facilitate focused discussions and collaborations. The event will also host technical sessions highlighting initiatives under the Centres Make in India programme.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The meet underscores Puducherrys growing role as a hub for MSME-led exports and provides a platform for local enterprises to connect with global markets, forge partnerships, and scale their international presence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
