Guwahati, September 8, 2026: Northeast India’s rapidly emerging creator economy is set to receive a major spotlight as the North East Creator Circuit 2026 brings together more than 100 creators and influencers from across the region at MAYFAIR Guwahati on September 13.
Positioned as a new and credible platform for the region’s digital talent, the event will bring creators, leading brands, marketing professionals and industry experts under one roof to celebrate creativity, encourage collaboration and explore new opportunities in the fast-evolving creator economy.
An initiative of Netive, in association with Trident Brandcom, the North East Creator Circuit 2026 will feature a vibrant mix of networking sessions, brand–creator interactions, curated brand experiences and a fashion sequence. A key intellectual highlight of the event will be the panel discussion “Creator Economy 2.0 – Northeast”, which will examine the changing role of creators and the opportunities emerging within the region’s digital ecosystem.
Celebrating the region’s creator icons
One of the most anticipated segments of the event will be the Creator Icons Awards – The Northeast Edition. The awards will recognise outstanding creators and influencers who are making an impact across diverse fields including fashion, beauty, food, travel, lifestyle, entertainment, music, culture and social impact.
The winners will be selected by an eminent jury comprising professionals from the media, entertainment and creative industries, adding credibility and industry perspective to the recognition.
Speaking about the initiative, Rudrajeet Kumar Laskar, Executive Editor of Netive and Event Director, said:
“Northeast India is home to a highly creative and culturally diverse digital community. The North East Creator Circuit has been created to bring creators, brands and industry leaders together on one credible platform for recognition, collaboration and meaningful conversations.”
He further emphasised that the objective is not merely to measure influence through follower numbers, but to explore how creators can build sustainable careers, stronger communities and meaningful, long-term partnerships with brands.
The initiative also reflects the growing interest among brands in the distinctive storytelling and strong audience relationships developed by Northeast creators. A participating brand representative noted that creators from the region possess a distinctive voice and deep audience connect, making the platform an important opportunity for brands to understand and engage with the region’s evolving creator ecosystem.
For creators, the event promises opportunities beyond awards and recognition. A participating creator said that a dedicated platform of this scale could create new avenues for learning, collaboration and wider recognition, while bringing the region’s diverse creator community together.
The event is Powered by Smirnoff Lemon Pop Non-Alcoholic and Co-Powered by Digitek, with JIS Group as Education Partner, Magik Cook as Flavour Partner, Style Baazar as Fashion Partner and Suchita Toyota as Mobility Partner, along with other supporting partners.
With creativity, culture and commerce converging on a single platform, the North East Creator Circuit 2026 aims to establish itself as an important bridge between the Northeast’s home-grown digital talent and India’s expanding creator economy. More than an event, it seeks to create a lasting ecosystem where regional voices can gain national visibility, creators can discover new possibilities, and brands can build meaningful connections with one of India’s most culturally diverse creative communities.
