About the Event
CONCLAVE 2025 – ‘BHARTIYA FIRST’ is an initiative by Stichting Sanskriti & Sanskar, with support from the Embassy of India to The Netherlands, aimed at fostering unity, empowerment, and integration among Bhartiyas living in the Netherlands. The idea is rooted in the vision of a unified national and civilizational consciousness of Bharat, transcending the vast diversity of India.
The Conclave seeks to bring together the Indian community to work towards a Viksit Bharat 2047, focusing on core areas such as One Identity, Technology, Innovation & R&D, Indians in Netherlands Cities, and Bharat in Dutch Media. These pillars aim to harness digital infrastructure, indigenous innovation, deep tech, education, and sustainability as engines of growth and as cultural enablers that unite Bhartiyas across the globe.
The event will feature keynote addresses, networking opportunities, and collaborative sessions designed to ideate, plan, and work collectively towards outcomes that strengthen the Bhartiya identity, celebrate our shared traditions, and enhance India's image in the Dutch media.
