"Economic empowerment of women is a national agenda, and by supporting this exhibition, I have the honour in supporting the economic empowerment of our women," Aishwarya said in a statement.
The actress will be the chief guest at the event, to be held at the NSCI Dome @ NSCI on September 5 and September 6.
"I am honoured and privileged to be invited as the chief guest here to represent the women of our times, the burgeoning entrepreneurs and future powerful and promising stalwarts," Aishwarya added.
Featuring 240 participants, the event includes displays of fine jewellery, fashion, lifestyle and gourmet foods, making it a delight for shoppers of all kinds.
"The vision of the IMC Ladies' Wing is to empower women entrepreneurs and encourage them towards greater success in their endeavours.
