Additionally, two projects have also been selected for Start-up Exploration Programme organized by Catalyst, IIT Mandi and have received financial support of up to Rs 1.5 Lakh in addition to mentoring, networking and training.

Speaking on the occasion Dr Pramath Raj Sinha, Co-founder of Naropa Fellowship said “It was a great experience interacting with young minds at Naropa Fellowship. Seeing the energy of the Fellows, it is evident that they will create sustainable solutions for society and contribute to their communities. It is heartening to see that the New Education Policy 2019 which envisages a deeper focus on liberal arts and culture supports our vision for Naropa Fellowship and we hope to encourage the youth in more and more numbers to be a part of this Fellowship going forward.”

Speaking on the occasion His Eminence Drukpa Thuksey Rinpoche, Co-founder of Naropa Fellowship said “It’s an honour to present leaders of tomorrow who will create a meaningful impact in the Himalayan region. With Ladakh being declared as a Union Territory, our vision is now aligned in removing major barriers in the prevailing education system in the region and create opportunities for youth to study and become successful entrepreneurs.”

Shri Jamyang Tsering Namgyal, MP of Ladakh, Guest of Honour said, “With Ladakh being declared a Union Territory, there is now a greater need than ever before for entrepreneurial ventures that provide local youth with new opportunities, generate employment in the region and help shape a brighter future for people of Ladakh. Naropa Fellows have already made a great start by undertaking ventures with the potential to make a positive impact on the Himalayan region. I wish them the very best in all their future endeavours.”
