About Samavesh Chamber of Commerce:

Samavesh Chamber of Commerce is India's first Queer (LGBTIQ+) and Queer Ethnic Minority led organization. It is also a non-profit chamber of commerce focusing on the development of a business and policy ecosystem. In ancient Sanskrit and Hindi, "Samavesh" signifies "inclusion." It revives the old Vedic notion of "Vasudheiva Kutumbakam," which indicates that the world is one family, and we should treat each other and the environment with respect and humility.

While much has been done in India to improve the human rights of the LGBTIQ+ population, nothing has been done to help the Queer population professionally or economically. After seeing this need gap, we felt the urgency to address it as Queer Business Leaders in India, and as a result, the Queer Centric Chamber of Commerce emerged as the all-encompassing solution that we devised, to solve the stated issue statement and related gaps. Our vision for the road ahead is to co-create a safe and inclusive business ecosystem in India for the Queer (LGBTIQ+) community.
