Tamil Nadu is home to over 4.94 million small businesses and is fast becoming an emerging industrial hub, and employs around 1 crore people through direct and indirect employment opportunities.
As businesses across Tamil Nadu are tapping into the digital resources offered by the platform to fuel their growth and sustenance, Facebook India has strengthened its commitment to the small businesses of India by launching the inaugural edition of the ‘Grow Your Business’ Summit, recently.
The summit saw small businesses from distinct verticals from across Tamil Nadu and the rest of India, including small towns and rural areas, attend the event and share their stories about how they transformed their business using digital technologies and apps by Meta.
During the summit, the company also announced the launch of ‘Grow Your Business Hub’, a one-stop destination for the micro, small, and medium businesses to find relevant information, tools, and resources curated to cater to their business goals based on their growth journey.
Archana Vohra, Director, Small & Medium Business, Facebook India, said, “The role of our apps is more important than ever in unlocking growth opportunities for Tamil Nadu and India’s SMBs as many of them move online and use digital to grow. Keeping in mind the unique needs of small businesses at various stages of their growth journey, today we’re also announcing ‘Grow Your Business Hub’, a one-stop destination for small businesses to find resources curated to their goals.”
