Focus on Investment Through Destination Tripura Business Conclave :
A major highlight of this year’s fair is the 'Destination Tripura Business Conclave', scheduled for February 7 and 8 at a private hotel in Agartala. This initiative aims to position Tripura as a premier investment destination in Northeast India.
The conclave is expected to attract more than 150 potential investors from across the country and within the state. Key sectors such as tourism, information technology, education, and health services will be the focus of discussions and presentations.
Anticipated Economic Impact:
Minister Santana Chakma shared that last year’s 34th Industrial and Trade Fair generated business worth Rs 6.28 crore. She expressed optimism about surpassing that figure this year, given the broader scope and enhanced participation.
“This fair is not just about showcasing products but also about fostering innovation and trade collaborations,” she said, emphasizing the government’s commitment to strengthening Tripura’s business ecosystem.
Notably, after a successful conduct of the Saras Mela at the same venue, the 35th Tripura Industrial and Trade Fair is expected to benefit the local entrepreneurs in manufacturing innovative products as well as enhancing their marketing skills.
Moreover, the fair is set to feature an impressive lineup of exhibitors, including renowned names from national and local markets.
According to informed sources, this year's Destination Tripura Business Conclave assumes a lot of significance especially after recent political developments in neighbouring Bangladesh.
