The Rising North East Investors Summit 2025, scheduled to take place on May 23, 2025, at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, aims to promote investment in various sectors with high potential for sustainable development in the North Eastern Region of India.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the summit, which invites both domestic and international investors to explore the region's untapped potential. The event serves as a platform for policymakers, investors, and key stakeholders to discuss investment opportunities across various sectors.
The focus sectors identified for the summit are:
- Tourism and Hospitality

- Healthcare
- Education and Skill Development
- IT/ITeS (Information Technology and IT-enabled Services)
- Entertainment and Sports
- Infrastructure and Logistics
- Energy (with emphasis on low-carbon and green technologies)
These sectors have been chosen to showcase the diverse strengths of the North East and its capacity for sustainable development.
The summit is expected to generate significant investment interest, as evidenced by the MoUs, letters of intent, and qualified leads from various private firms, public-sector undertakings, and major industrial houses. According to preliminary estimates, the investment interest totals Rs 4.48 trillion.
To support sustainable and inclusive industrial growth, the Government of India is rolling out the Uttar Poorva Transformative Industrialisation (UNNATI) Scheme, which includes incentives such as Capital Investment Incentive, Central Capital Interest Subvention Incentive, and Manufacturing & Services Linked Incentive. States are also enhancing investor facilitation through single-window clearances, land banks, and other sector-specific incentives.
Strong emphasis has been placed on promoting green industries and the use of low-carbon technologies to ensure development while preserving the ecologically sensitive environment of the North East. Senior industry leaders like Reliance Chairman Mukesh Ambani have also announced major investment plans to capitalise on these opportunities.
The summit will feature ministerial sessions, Business-to-Government (B2G) and Business-to-Business (B2B) meetings, startup showcases, and exhibitions, making it a significant initiative aimed at boosting investments in the North Eastern Region. The two-day event is designed to showcase the North Eastern Region as a thriving land of opportunity.
Before the summit, a series of promotional activities, including roadshows, state roundtables, an Ambassador's Meet, and a Bilateral Chambers Meet, were organized to generate interest and prepare the ground for successful investment opportunities. These pre-summit engagements were conducted by the central government in collaboration with the governments of the North Eastern states.
The Rising North East Investors Summit 2025 promises to be a pivotal event in the region's economic development, offering a valuable opportunity for networking and collaboration between government bodies and business leaders, and promoting sustainable development in the North East.
