Smile Group has created a joint venture with TPG Growth called Katalyzers to help companies from developed markets launch their products in developing markets. We spoke with Harish Bahl, who is the founder of Smile Group and General Partner in Katalyzer to know more about the new venture, how they plan to approach these markets and the relationship it shares with TPG.

SMILE Group is India’s largest consortium of companies, founded in 1999 by Harish Bahl and headquartered in New Delhi, India. Smile Group, formerly known as StudioSmile started its operation as a small web shop from a garage.
