Vijaywada Springboard
With our Springboards, Leaders of Tomorrow hits the road, travelling to cities across India - from Delhi to Chennai, Kolkata to Mumbai. Each event becomes a live platform for dialogue, discovery & connection, bringing together policymakers, business leaders, startup founders and local MSMEs to explore regional growth stories, on-the-ground challenges & the way forward. From navigating tech transformations and entering global markets, to weathering trade wars and economic shocks, conversations will showcase the evolution of India’s true growth engines.
Vijayawada: The Business Capital of New Andhra
Once a thriving trade corridor on the banks of the Krishna River, Vijayawada is now one of Andhra Pradesh's most powerful growth engines. With the state clocking the second-highest economic growth rate in India at 8.21% for 2024-25, Vijayawada Urban Mandal is leading the charge powered by a booming hospitality industry, rising commercial tax revenues, and its strategic proximity to Amaravati. To explore how MSMEs can ride this wave of momentum, join us at the Vijayawada Springboard — one pitstop on our pan India roadshow series, only on ET NOW.
