Frappeverse is here!
Democracy at Work Conference 2025 was our first attempt at creating a space to openly discuss work cultures in collaboration with Semco Style Institute. The discussion featured perspectives from our speakers: Rushabh Mehta (Founder & CEO, Frappe), Harini Sreenivasan (Partner, SemcoStyle Institute India), Unny Radhakrishnan (CEO, Digitas India), Rohit Bansal (Co-founder, Sahaj Software), and Sydel D’souza (HR Manager, Frappe), among others.
Democracy at Work Conference at Frappe
Hearing so many perspectives on what democratic work environments mean in practice, what empowers people, and what gets in the way was both grounding and purposeful.
We realized that this movement needs a wider audience and greater openness to even begin making a difference. Any meaningful change in work culture can only happen when such conversations move beyond a single room or company. Hopefully, we’ll see more such gatherings hosted by different organizations across India and the globe.
Product Updates
ERPNext now includes a dedicated Serial Number and Batch Traceability Report, offering both forward and backward traceability. It allows users to see where a product originated and where it was used, a valuable feature for improving quality control, audit readiness, and compliance in manufacturing and supply chain workflows.

Over 17 years, we’ve built more than just products. We’ve built a community filled with real people and real stories. Every day, that community grows, carrying with it struggles, victories, and moments that don’t always make the headlines but shape who we are. The Frappe Podcast was born from a simple wish: to create a home for these stories. Each episode invites you into heartfelt conversations about work, life journeys, and the little things that hold us together along the way.
The Frappe Podcast on YouTube and Spotify
The first two episodes are out now, featuring none other than Rushabh Mehta and Umair Sayed. These are not just interviews but some cool unfiltered conversations that go beyond work. Pop in your earphones and check them out.
New TFP episodes drop every first and third Friday of the month. Hit subscribe so you don’t miss the next story on your feed. Also, you can find the podcast on Spotify!

Frappeverse India 2025
As usual, we’re hosting a bootcamp right before Frappeverse. Join us in Mumbai on September 9-10, 2025, for the Frappe Framework Bootcamp — a hands-on, instructor-led training with Nikhil Kothari. Learn to build full-stack custom apps using the open-source Frappe Framework through live coding and guided exercises. The program includes certificates, meals, and relevant support.
We’re hosting a fresh set of five webinars in September, each highlighting a different way ERPNext and Frappe apps are being used across industries and regions. From logistics and plant maintenance to HRMS compliance and manufacturing practices, we’ll see a lot of variety this month.
