Today, microfinance in India is part of the larger financial framework and Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) are emerging as social businesses within this framework, catering to an untapped market segment while creating value for their stakeholders. As per our estimates, the Indian MFIs are expected to build a portfolio of US$ 6.27 billion (INR 251 billion) reaching out to an active borrower base of 48.7 million by 2012 in the most likely growth scenario.
Srijan 2008 aims to tap this potential of the sector and seeks sponsors who are interested in promoting the sector and working towards the overall goal of complete financial inclusion.
In the past two years Srijan has been sponsored by industry experts interested in promoting the microfinance sector. Leading companies such as Aavishkaar Goodwell, BASIX, ICICI Bank, Standard Chartered and Yes Bank participated in making Srijan 2006 and 2007 state of the art events in the industry.
