Participants at the Ease of Doing Business conclave highlighted the need for simplified regulatory frameworks, improved logistics networks, and enhanced air connectivity to facilitate operations for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the region. The discussions underscored challenges faced by manufacturers in accessing markets and transporting goods efficiently.

Key areas of focus included streamlining government clearance processes, strengthening last-mile connectivity, and upgrading industrial infrastructure to attract and retain businesses in Mysuru.
