Bright Future's Yuvarambh 2026, held in Mumbai, provided a platform for youth to explore entrepreneurship as a realistic career path. The event highlighted challenges and solutions in nurturing young entrepreneurs, focusing on building skills, mentorship, and network access to bridge the gap between aspirations and sustainable livelihoods.

Yuvarambh 2026, a youth dialogue initiative by Bright Future, was hosted at Acres Club in Mumbai, aligning with the theme 'Badi Soch - Building Entrepreneurial Pathways for Youth in a Changing India.' The event, held from February 16-17, 2026, aimed to connect young people with entrepreneurship resources and opportunities.

This year's dialogue addressed the hurdles faced by aspiring entrepreneurs, particularly first-generation learners.
