C2C Leadership organized Uttarakhand’s biggest Uttarakhand Influencers Meet 2025 on December 8, 2025, which was fully managed by Kedar Beyond Creation (KBC). The chief guest at the event was the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Pushkar Dhami. The event took place at 4:00 PM at The Emerald Grand Hotel, Dehradun. The event saw a large gathering of prominent personalities and creators from Uttarakhand, who enjoyed everything from Chief Minister Pushkar Dhami’s address to Pritam’s melodious singing.
The Chief Minister of Uttarakhand walking onto the stage, hugging YouTubers, clicking selfies with Instagram reel queens, and then personally putting shawls and trophies around five incredible women who run businesses from tiny mountain villages. That actually happened on Sunday evening at Hotel Emerald Trail.
For the first time ever, the state threw open its doors and said, “Creators, women entrepreneurs – you’re not alone anymore.”
The event was called Uttarakhand Creators Meet 2025 & Women Entrepreneurs Honour Ceremony, and it was organised by a passionate team at C2C Leadership (the husband-wife duo Divya Singh Mehra and Sanjiv Singh Mehra, who refused to let this dream remain just a dream), with the full event meticulously managed and coordinated by Shilpa Bhat and the dedicated C2C team members.
The moment everyone is still talking about? CM Pushkar Singh Dhami handed out the brand-new “Mahila Udyami Samman 2025” to five absolute powerhouses:
→ Nalini Gosain
→ Shashi Raturii
→ Swati Singh
→ Jyoti Dabral
→ Gayatri Balodi
These ladies are growing organic brands, reviving dying handicrafts, running self-help groups that employ hundreds of sisters in the hills, and building startups when most people told them “it’s impossible up here”.
Then came the part that felt like a group chat with the CM himself – the “Mukhya Mantri Samvad”. Creators stood up, phones in hand, and straight-up asked: “Sir, internet sucks in villages, training is missing, and making money from content is harder here.” CM Dhami didn’t give politician answers. He said, “Policy is coming very soon. Training centres, funding help, better connectivity – consider it done.
You could feel the energy shift in the room. People were crying, cheering, clapping – it was wild.
The night ended with Padma Shri Preetam Bharatwan singing pahadi folk like only he can. Half the hall was dancing, the other half had tears rolling down.
This wasn’t just an event. It felt like Uttarakhand finally looked at its young creators and mountain daughters and said, “We see you. We’ve got your back.” And honestly? The rest of India needs to watch out – because the hills are rising, and they’re doing it with phones, dreams, and unstoppable women.
