The objective is to discuss strategies & models that have to be developed by the private sector to succeed in rural markets in these areas. The focus is also to take feedback from corporates regarding their initiatives in rural areas and also to address problems & difficulties encountered while carrying out business.

On its mission to reach out to Tier II & Tier III towns in the state, the Chamber has held programmes in different industrial and business hubs of West Bengal including Haldia, Asansol, Durgapur, North Bengal. The Chamber also connected with the business units in the districts of West Bengal to take its mission forward.
