WHO WE ARE

ABOUTNYFS.

The Northeast Young Founders Summit is built on one belief: the next generation of great Indian companies doesn't have to come from Bangalore or Delhi. It can come from here.

The talent was always here; the room to build it wasn't. NYFS is that room - a three-day bootcamp and pitch competition for Gen Z founders and first-time builders across Northeast India, where you'll learn how startups actually get built and pitch your own to mentors and investors on the final day.

THE NETWORK YOU LACKED

The mentors, investors, and founders the region rarely puts in one room - now in one room, for you.

MADE FOR FIRST-TIMERS

Built for people who've never pitched, never raised, never built before. Everyone starts somewhere; start here.

DAY 1: Ideate

You don’t need an idea to start. On Day 1, you’ll break down how startups actually work, spot real problems around you, turn them into ideas, test them, and find your team. By the end, you’ll have a solid idea you actually want to take forward.
