Organized by the Ladies\u2019 Wing of the IMC Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the event reaffirmed its status as the premier platform for discovering India\u2019s finest women-led brands.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Coinciding with the festive season, this vibrant platform brought together 286 remarkable women entrepreneurs from 31 cities, many of whom had no previous retail presence. They unveiled inspired creations spanning gourmet food, high fashion, lifestyle design, artisanal craft, and sustainable innovation. Paying tribute to India\u2019s rich heritage, the exhibition showcased master artisans and traditional weavers from remote areas, alongside handcrafted products from NGOs in Siliguri, Ganeshpuri (Palghar), Sujangarh, and Shekhawati, each preserving age-old techniques with pride and integrity.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">The inaugural function on August 10, was attended by Bollywood actor Manushi Chhillar, who joined Rajyalakshmi Rao, President of IMC Ladies\u2019 Wing; Kalpana Shah, Chairperson of the Exhibition Committee; Juveca Panda Chheda, Co-Chairperson; and distinguished Exhibition committee members, along with special guests Zarine Khan and Madhoo Shah.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Speaking at the event, Manushi Chhillar remarked, \u201cThis is not just an exhibition \u2014 it\u2019s a celebration of women who dare to dream and work relentlessly to make those dreams come true. What I love most about women entrepreneurs is that they build with empathy, purpose, and heart, setting an example for young girls like me to believe in the possibilities of their dreams.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Rajyalakshmi Rao shared, \u201cMy presidential theme this year, Evolve to Excel, beautifully captures the spirit of the event \u2014 it\u2019s a call to action for every woman to embrace change, take on challenges, and move forward with confidence and courage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Kalpana Shah introduced this year\u2019s theme \u2014 Raja Ravi Varma \u2014 celebrating the legendary artist\u2019s depiction of women as graceful and empowered. The ceremony began with the national anthem and the ceremonial lighting of the lamp, followed by a heartfelt letter from Kokilaben Ambani, read by Juveca Panda Chheda, extending her warm wishes to all participants.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Talking about the event, Chheda also said, \u201cWe have planned a lot of special things and one of the them we\u2019re all very passionate about is that this year we\u2019ve taken sustainability very seriously. So, everything that you\u2019ll see in terms of the decor, we have used sustainable alternatives, which are plastic free. We are powering the whole event with green energy. We\u2019re also composting all the wet waste from the event, so less of that ends up in the landfill and all the plastic bottles that are used and disposed here will also be recycled. We\u2019re trying to be as green as possible and reduce our carbon footprint this year. We want everyone to shop, but also be conscious at the same time about the planet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Throughout the day, the exhibition was graced by prominent personalities including Rashmi Thackeray, Sunita Kapoor, Poonam Sinha, Poonam Dhillon, and many more, adding to the event\u2019s glitter and significance.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">With applications for the next edition already pouring in, the Women Entrepreneurs\u2019 Exhibition continues to thrive not just as an event but as a movement \u2014 propelling women-led innovation and enterprise across India.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,UklGRgIDAABXRUJQVlA4IPYCAAAwJQCdASosAcgAPmEwlkekIyIhJDcIkIAMCWlu4XVRG2jfiezIohx5359wXuC9wXuC9wXuC9wXuC9wXuC9wXuC9wXuC9wXuC9wXuCq2ceFaLiV1H\/8x9KwXf\/OJLzd1lEVyRpIJzRpHhHXSnGBod9IfYFu9Ruvr0h55Rv1jwdfEvYf5d4GaFyCsqZGWdaid2H9uJlL8XfDpo4g+wC3ExOPLYgOdJ4t1Mblm4ysYoXF3UiI\/9o2hGBY87tiBEHfdTovs\/BCUUX7JmRRDV8ns9emZLbbgGLReXrq58pYe3e+cWwEE6VkgKz9XtXMNjKSc5T3w+yapJRHVhcUQ47hE3tkyf2QSiF+YwKTtepaied+fcF7gvcF7gvcF7gvcF7gvcF7gvcF7gvcF7gvcF7gvcF7fgAA\/v9y6AAAtG7FCnlC644LTxONH+0DNmaexB4oaAsZzGu\/EonTQ3s6CyPU09LPMFvfmIHni8v9IjHEBaNnLXPrqmWQ5bnizZgGM6Dqz0t2UEqzewqsz5Yq8Xksvl8hLAAcYVn\/kYLMj0KB\/KSMB3q6y8CZTcEz4OrUgbMbd8Zb1kQlSEVdGHtMMFj69samn9sIUV8x7MXPx5K4u\/jZ603Gm8N6Qwhe4FxNhjInXZO8aRl7T3dnNp6b8nkjX3MoF\/PqV+wnu14N6gCHHg58HAlI8rwKTacUs0dxcaYP5oVoCMa+Wg13ibQGDE9IW16Mp9V+3SBCD1p5zrCGXcG3CYpUJi0WPhKZFr2sF8HRNjNsEnJduIFUAhoQdZxL5hQe5AS0QaTvrxdQ5z1hw1kwJ5B2nQkPod8XD6Y3E4eJMn8tr0BCibcIusPCYW\/4+G\/Yeuobu\/pr82bvxdoSZau6Ow6+Xjyq2pr2q953XKusKZQ30SJx5oE8NuUARh6i4MjKzHe9TFXjvwJhq5g0AWjhEsVVBk+JQLUDtYLpKb9AbKWeNzZhAZLYjWS474VUOSu6MqC5ItYIQIvL+wGTcSajbQAAAAAAAA==\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/lifestyle-desk-19049.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Lifestyle Desk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our life needs a bit of style to get the perfect zing in the daily routine.
