KT Rama Rao, IT Minister says, “India today is home to many youngsters, who in the next decade are going to create world-class companies, offer solutions and solve many problems plaguing the world. This is where I believe ICC has a huge role to play, as these entrepreneurs need proper mentoring.”

It is believed that ICC will have more opportunities by reaching out to huge untapped market of small and medium entrepreneurs. Rao believes the brand to focus on handholding and mentoring the small businesses, providing essential policy advice for a better future.

Rao adds, “Telangana government will set up a consultative committee to work with ICC and start engaging with SMEs.”

Being the oldest industry body in India, ICC is looking to go local via expanding through MSME sector.
