FICCI FLO Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh on Saturday hosted its “Vibrant Verve” exhibition in Srinagar, drawing participation from women entrepreneurs across India and receiving an enthusiastic response from visitors and exhibitors.

The exhibition, organised at the Radisson Collection Hotel & Spa, Riverfront Srinagar, featured 35 stalls showcasing fashion, lifestyle, wellness and handcrafted products.

The event was inaugurated by Hina Shafi Bhat, who praised the initiative for creating business opportunities and support platforms for women entrepreneurs in Jammu and Kashmir.

“Initiatives like Vibrant Verve not only showcase the immense talent of women-led businesses but also strengthen the spirit of entrepreneurship and economic empowerment in Jammu and Kashmir,” Bhat said at the event.

Varsha Bansal, chairperson of FICCI FLO JKL, said the strong response to the exhibition reflected the creativity and entrepreneurial potential of women-led enterprises.

“Our engagement with Kashmir will continue to grow as we work together to build stronger networks, create new opportunities, and contribute meaningfully to women’s empowerment,” Bansal said.

Organisers said the exhibition generated positive visitor feedback and business opportunities for participating entrepreneurs.

The event was attended by several national and regional representatives of the organisation, including national vertical heads Kuwrani Ritu Singh and Varuna Anand, along with executive committee members and local representatives.
