Local ideas and entrepreneurial ambition took centre stage at Sikkim’s first-ever Udyami Bharosa Sammelan, held at Manan Kendra on September 28, 2026.
Organised by the Commerce and Industries Department in collaboration with SEED Cell, the event was attended by Chief Minister Shri Prem Singh Tamang (Golay) as Chief Guest, alongside Commerce and Industries and Tourism & Civil Aviation Minister Shri Tshering Thendup Bhutia.
The gathering celebrated local entrepreneurs and emerging talent, carrying forward the State Government’s “One Family, One Entrepreneur” vision. Addressing participants, the Chief Minister encouraged aspiring business owners to dream big, start small and support locally made products and services.
A major highlight was the recognition and prize distribution for winners of Sikkim RISE, a month-long start-up competition under the Sikkim INSPIRE Project. Entrepreneurial journeys, start-up pitches and new partnerships added to the programme, while 80 beneficiaries received cheques under the Mukhya Mantri Udyamshilta Yojana.
The Sammelan reinforced a shared ambition: helping Sikkim’s homegrown ideas grow into sustainable businesses that create opportunities for others.
