Welcome to the
Blue Valley Cluster:
The Future of Fragrance, Flavour and AYUSH Industries
A New Era of Business Growth & Global Impact
The Inlamobi Blue Valley Cluster is a fully integrated investment ecosystem designed for industry leaders, innovators, and visionaries looking to expand into high-growth sectors. Positioned in Northeast India and Bhutan, this exclusive industry-driven cluster provides companies with unmatched advantages in sustainable sourcing, advanced manufacturing, and global market access. The Cluster will operate through a cross-border, transcontinental public-private partnership model.
Strategic, Scientific, and Economic Rationale
Scientific studies confirm that cluster-based structures significantly outperform isolated industrial activities, particularly in sectors relying on established technological paradigms such as distillation, fermentation, extraction, and advanced natural processing. The model anticipates future technology evolutions, supports biodiversity innovation, and aligns with global certifications.
Accordingly, the cluster design integrates innovation scouting, technology partnerships, sustainable logistics platforms, inclusive business models aligned with ESG standards, and a strong focus on higher education and empowerment. The Inlamobi Cluster Ecosystem is firmly anchored in India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat strategy and resonates strongly with frameworks like the EU Global Gateway and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Cluster development is conceived as an evolving system for strategic renewal, cultivating innovation, boosting regional competitiveness, and aligning industries with the demands of global markets for sustainable, natural-origin, and circular economy products.
A Strategic Hub for Natural Ingredients & Industry Growth
The Ashtalakshmi States and Bhutan are global biodiversity hotspots and one of the richest regions for natural and rare raw materials, including medicinal plants, essential oils, and aromatic crops. The state is the largest producer of tea in India and a key player in the global supply chain for natural extracts. Its strategic location provides direct trade access to ASEAN and European markets, making it an ideal hub for sustainable industrial expansion.
Rich in high-value botanical resources, essential oils, and medicinal plants
🔹 Home to a skilled agricultural workforce and sustainable farming practices
🔹 Growing industrial infrastructure with SEZ benefits and government-backed incentives
🔹 Strong regulatory alignment with international trade standards, ensuring seamless exports.
Strategic Hub
The Blue Valley Cluster positions Assam as a strategic hub for sustainable trade and cross-border innovation. By connecting European expertise with India’s unique biodiversity and traditional knowledge, the initiative enables companies to tap into global demand for ethical, plant-based ingredients in the fragrance, flavour, and wellness industries.
With INLAMOBI, the Northeastern Region, and Bhutan leading implementation, this flagship initiative builds on foundational EU–India cooperation to scale Northeast India’s and Bhutan’s natural potential into a globally competitive industrial ecosystem.
Unlocking the Power of Biodiversity, Knowledge, and Community in the Northeast
Blue Valley represents India’s emerging catalyst for sustainable transformation within the flavours and fragrance sector. Anchored in the Northeast and Bhutan, and supported by the Ministry of Development of the Northeastern Region (DoNER), its mission is to establish a regenerative industrial ecosystem that leverages the region’s rich biodiversity, indigenous knowledge systems, and agro-entrepreneurial potential.”
Dual Focus of the Inlamobi Blue Valley Cluster
Linking Regional Strengths to Global Industry Opportunities
The Inlamobi Fragrance and Flavour Cluster Ecosystem Initiative embodies a new model of ecosystem development that integrates localized excellence with global market access, while fostering inclusive economic empowerment through structured, scalable collaboration. It is designed precisely to meet these demands.

Blue Valley: A Regenerative Cluster for India’s and Bhutan’s Fragrance and Flavour Future
Unlocking the Power of Biodiversity, Knowledge, and Community in the Northeast
Blue Valley is India’s emerging catalyst for sustainable transformation in the flavours and fragrance sector. Anchored in the Northeast and supported by the Ministry of Development of the Northeastern Region (DoNER), our mission is to build a regenerative industrial ecosystem that draws on the region’s rich biodiversity, indigenous knowledge, and agro-entrepreneurial potential.
At the heart of Blue Valley lies a bold ambition: to harness under-utilised aromatic crops such as lemongrass, citronella, mint, and lavender and turn them into high-value products, essential oils, flavours, and fragrances, for domestic and global markets. Through this mission, we aim to uplift rural livelihoods, empower women and tribal communities, and bring the farm closer to the customer through innovation and fair trade.
