Lumiere has a new address… We are at Sarjapur Main Road now !! Our 4th store in Bangalore was inaugurated today, 6th November 2016 @ 12 noon.
The store was inaugurated by Shri Ricky Kej, Grammy award winner musician, composer and conservationist, who also expressed his views on Organic cultivation, which were in alignment with Lumiere’s ideology and principles.
‘During his address to the small gathering at our new store, Shri Ricky highlighted that organic cultivation in simple terms means the way our ancestors grew food – ‘the natural way’ -just as nature intended it to be. He also expressed the irony, that in today’s world we have to label the organic produce which is pure and natural. However, there is no labeling required for the inorganic produce – in terms of pesticides and artificial fertilizers which are used to grow them. He also referred that in present times the Government would bring about radical changes only if the same is supported by the masses. Hence, it is pertinent that more and more people are made aware about supporting, cultivating and consuming nothing but pure and Organic food’.
Shri Nagaraja Prakasam, well-wisher, friend & engineer-turned-angel investor, who left his job to fund enterprises that have a definitive impact on society also graced the occasion and spoke about how he first visited Lumiere Restaurant four years back and how the aura of the restaurant and the story of the founders, Shri Manjunath and Shri Ambrose, captivated and left him mesmerized. He also spoke briefly about how Lumiere grew from being a single store to this day, which was also made possible by the goodwill of the customers who turned investors later to help this community of Organic supporters grow and flourish.
We welcome you to visit us at our brand new store at Sarjapur Main Road !!
Round Table on sustainable cities in New Delhi. Great to know Telangana has a green channel for startups who want to bid for Govt. projects.
“Why create a single enterprise worth thousand crores….why not a thousand enterprises worth a single crore ?”…..the defining philosophy of our theory of change for positively transforming the craft sector by creating equitable value across stakeholders.
The key component of the narrative at ‘The Craft Catapult’ Delhi Roundtable Meet yesterday led by Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship‘s Startup Oasis where the dialogue panned ground realities, situations, and concerns over the product- market fit, need for appropriate and timely design intervention, effectively countering competition, particularly from the factory made, artisan and stakeholder incomes, long gestation periods and resultant irregular cash flows, craftspeople motivation and orientations, use of technology to maximize process efficiency, ‘one of a kind’ vs ‘volume’ production
There was plenty of cross-learning and education geared towards evolving an ecosystem for creating, incubating, nurturing and accelerating, ethical, eco-friendly, value-oriented businesses by startups working in the craft environment.
