ABOUT ECLECTIC
WHAT IS THE ECLECTIC (TE)?
The Eclectic magazine is the flagship product of Eclectic Media Enterprises Pvt. Ltd, a media, design and publishing house.
Stylish, elegant, informative and cosmopolitan, The Eclectic caters to a socially savvy and ambitious class of people, positive about Northeast India becoming one of the most flourishing and in vogue places around.
WHAT IS OUR MISSION?
The Eclectic was created with a mission to fill the gap for a long needed national/international platform for India’s Northeast. Our aim is to showcase the region’s individual talent and enterprising spirit, as well as propagate its magnificence.
The changes that have been taking place in the business and economic environment in this region clearly indicate that the Northeast is fast emerging as a vibrant region. The Eclectic is highlighting these rapid changes in the region to create positive perceptions about the region in people’s minds and challenge the stereotypical image of the region propagated by both the local and national mainstream media.
We also provide a balanced coverage of developments around the world from fashion and lifestyle to sports and people, as well as interesting, informative and alternative features.
