On Friday at 10:30 a.m., Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Rising North East Investors Summit at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. The two-day event, held on May 23 and 24, aims to promote the North East Region (NER) as a booming investment location. It will bring together key stakeholders, including politicians, domestic and international investors, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and development partners.
The summit follows a series of pre-event activities aimed at building momentum. These included state-specific roundtables, promotional roadshows, and strategic forums like the Ambassador’s Meeting and the Bilateral Chambers Meeting. These engagements were organised in collaboration with several federal ministries and governments from the eight northeastern states.
The summit will feature focused ministerial discussions, business-to-government (B2G) and business-to-business (B2B) meetings, and a large exhibition space. This exhibition will highlight both federal and state-led efforts aimed at expanding economic prospects in the Northeast.
The summit will also provide an opportunity for young businesses to present their inventions. It will prioritise investment in industries such as tourism, agro-food processing, textiles, handicrafts, healthcare, education, IT services, logistics, infrastructure, energy, and sports. The event aims to maximise the region’s economic potential through strategic collaboration and meaningful dialogue.
