During the event, Assam's two noted entrepreneurs, Bhanu Pratap from Northeast Farm Sales Promotion and Ranjith Baruah from Aromica Tea, shared their experience on their entrepreneurial journey as well.

“We have conceptualised the E-Championship Challenge to provide a platform for our entrepreneurs who have the passion but due to lack of opportunities were unable to upscale their business entities. Through this programme, we have identified the best business ideas, and have helped them to upscale their venture. We are providing mentorship and incubation to enable them to take a new leap in their entrepreneurial journey,” Sangma said.
