Empowering Women Through Skill Development and Entrepreneurship

Under the "Baking a Dream" CSR initiative by Theobroma, FICSI, in collaboration with Kraftivity Art Centre, organized a Certificate Distribution Ceremony for women candidates who successfully completed training in the Assistant Baking Technician job role.

The initiative extended beyond training through MSME UDYAM registrations, FSSAI licenses, and entrepreneurship support to help participants establish sustainable livelihoods. In a notable achievement, one candidate also secured loan approval under the PMFME Scheme to start her own enterprise.

FICSI remains committed to enabling skill development, entrepreneurship, and economic empowerment through industry-led partnerships.
