What if your AI agent could help you level the playing field, compete with larger enterprises and do so at a cost level that doesn't strain your wallet? Google Cloud's latest no-code and low-code tools empower MSMEs to build powerful Generative AI agents that can navigate everything from routine inquiries to complex multi-turn conversational experiences and seamless brand-aligned customer experiences. This 30-minute webinar showcases how a fully functional agent can be built, refined and deployed on the front lines in record time.
AI-driven autonomous retail is rewriting the MSME playbook. Learn how small businesses can leverage intelligent automation to streamline operations, predict demand, and deliver seamless, next-generation customer experiences.
While startups have the speed, experimentation, data-led decisions, and technology-enabled scale, they have also shown the risks of chasing growth without strong fundamentals. How can MSMEs adopt startup practices to become more agile and competitive, but retain their resilience, profitability, and long-term thinking they already possess.
For MSMEs, capital is more than just securing money; it is choosing a funding structure that matches the business, cash flows, and ambitions. Unpack how to prepare for institutional capital, and how newer underwriting models and non-dilutive financing are widening access to growth capital for businesses that have traditionally been underserved.
Digital payments have brought millions of small businesses into the formal financial ecosystem, creating new opportunities for banks to support their growth. Find out how banks and fintech companies can use transaction insights, embedded finance, and business-management tools to help MSMEs operate more efficiently.
Going public can unlock capital, credibility, and the next phase of growth, but an IPO begins long before the listing bell. Tarun Singh of Highbrow Securities breaks down the do's and don'ts for a market-ready plan, from financial discipline and governance to the realities of life after listing and mistakes to avoid along the way.
Waste management is closely associated with material recovery and a circular economy. MSMEs play a critical role in delivering business models that support industry, government and consumers to walk the talk on social and environmental impact.
India's textile waste presents a great opportunity to create new products, enterprises and livelihoods. But what does it take to build commercially viable circular value chains? Learn how MSMEs, large businesses and ecosystem partners can work together to take these models to scale.
Technology, consumer expectations, capital flows and competitive dynamics are reshaping how small businesses build and grow. What do these shifts mean for MSMEs? Which traditional assumptions no longer hold and how founders can adapt their business models, capabilities and growth strategies to stay relevant in an evolving market?
India's smallest businesses often sit outside conventional MSME finance because household and business cash flows are deeply intertwined, formal records are limited, and traditional underwriting models do not reflect how they operate. Understand why nano enterprises remain underserved and examine how policymakers, lenders, and ecosystem players can design better credit, protection, and formalisation pathways.
Indian craftsmanship has always held global appeal but scaling heritage into a thriving business needs more than a compelling product. Aparna Thyagarajan of Shobitam Designs dives into how brands can modernise traditional categories without diluting their identity, acquire a loyal customer base across borders, and create growth that also strengthens artisan communities.
As digital commerce makes global markets more accessible, logistics has become a key differentiator for MSMEs. This session explores how businesses can leverage technology, efficient supply chains, and cross-border trade ecosystems to improve customer experience, expand internationally, and build resilient, scalable operations.
Businesses today are handling more information, faster decisions, and leaner teams than ever before. This session explores how Gemini Enterprise is helping organisations synthesise information, improve operational visibility, and accelerate decision-making across teams and workflows.
Long-lasting businesses do not resist change; they evolve and adapt while keeping their core intact. Lavanya Nalli has been modernising the family business while protecting the trust and identity built over generations. Learn how she tackled challenges of digital transformation and won over younger customers while retaining the company’s emphasis on product, trust, and craftsmanship.
Getting a business online used to mean hiring a developer, spending months on setup, and navigating technology that wasn't built for you. For most MSME founders, that wall was real — and it kept great ideas from becoming real businesses. That wall no longer exists. In this talk, Giedrius Zakaitis draws on Hostinger's experience building AI tools used by millions of small business owners globally to show what's now possible — and what it means for Indian MSMEs specifically. He'll share a practical playbook for how any founder can use AI to build a professional online presence, automate operations, and compete like a company 10x their size — without writing a single line of code.
