What Makes NBC '26 Special

The Namma Bengaluru Challenge is a start-up pitch fest where every idea presented goes through two independent jury panels, a rigorous process designed to identify the Top 5 climate innovators genuinely working to make Bengaluru better.

For a Bangalore-based brand like us, being part of the Namma Bengaluru Challenge 2026 it is indeed a homecoming. It's also a chance to contribute to a city which has shaped us. This is the place where we’ve built our brand and also a growing community of environmentally conscious customers.

Join us to celebrate this amazing day on January 24, starting from 4 PM to 10 PM at Bangalore International Centre. Bare Necessities will be there, ready to share, learn, and co-create with the community that made their journey possible. Come say hello and become a part of shaping what Bengaluru becomes next.

See you there!
