I will discuss the large-N limit of two-dimensional symmetric product orbifolds. The goal is to single out which symmetric product orbifold theory could lead to a strongly coupled theory, whose dual could be a semi-classical theory of gravity, by quantifying the large-N limit of the BPS spectrum. From this classification I will propose an infinite family of new holographic CFTs.
