EEMA announces single window permissions for events in India

This entire event was conducted under the aegis of the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting along with Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI).

The launch of single window permissions for events in India will facilitate towards bringing more global events to the South Asian nation.

Sharing his views on the newly introduced clearance system, General Secretary for EEMA Siddhartha Chaturvedi said, “This initiation of the process of Single Window Permissions for Events in India will really help this troubled industry to get back on its feet quickly.

"We have been asking for this ease of doing business from a long time and have been facing issues around it since many decades. As each event is like a complete project, we find these bottlenecks of taking multiple permissions and the complexities involved in it, which is a big area of concern for every event manager.

"These delays in seeking these permissions hinders our growth and puts a stop to our plans. For this new initiative we are thankful to the Ministry of I&B & NFDC and feel hopeful towards a positive future ahead.”

President of EEMA Roshan Abbas said, “We have also launched the EEMAGIC app (eemagic.org) especially curated for wedding planners with a two-way review system."

EEMAGIC application is meant to aid in structuring the industry and work with the best partners across the field of experiential business, an official EEMA release said.

Another highlight was the launch of the EEMA Wedding Council which will work towards building relationships between global stakeholders, departments, licensing authorities and other relevant bodies in the industry, while helping in solving major problems for this sector.
