A Home in the Mountains

The mountains hold a safe space for a diverse group of creators and visionaries to come together and really remove all the layers each of us put up in our daily lives. It allows us to be vulnerable, challenges us and more than anything, gives us a space to grow. After a tumultuous year that 2020 had been, people went through enormous life changes and epiphanies. BHX Nainital was the edition that gave our residents a home away from home, to reel back from their paths and really focus on what mattered the most.
The fresh air, the rustling trees and the golden morning hour, collectively fostered our creative spirit at the edition, no matter where we came from.
Our 22nd Edition saw a bunch of diverse people coming together from different parts of the country — from marketing heads to professional chocolate experts, entrepreneurs to app developers, writers to game designers, user experience designers to chefs. All of them had something in common though…
They all wanted to be heard, understood, and grow into their potential.
Nishi, who heads a creative studio believed that since designers design for humans, it is very important for them to get various perspectives from a diverse group of people. We wholeheartedly believe that too. Perspectives, insights and ideas are all we need to make a great, tangible shift in how we operate.

Mahesh taught us how important it was to understand our employees, their dreams and goals. It is so important for entrepreneurs to help the people who work for them, reach their individual goals. That’s when loyalty and trust is built, the most vital elements in a professional relationship.
Varun, who is an internationally recognised dancer left with a perspective he didn’t even know he was looking for. He recently won a dance championship after an 11-month pause and dedicated his win to all of us. And we’re all so humbled by that!
Nainital took in a group of strangers and gave them a family to leave with. A family that would cheer their every win and hold them when they fall. And for this, we’ll always be grateful…
