Ministry of New was born out of a need to work in a more inspiring, collaborative work environment. Co-founders Marlies Bloemendaal and Natascha Chadha - both Dutch nationals individually found it a challenge to find an inspiring work environment when they moved to India more than 7 years ago. In 2013, in an effort to create a more inspiring work environment lead Marlies to renovate an old factory in Lalbaug, Mumbai, convert it into a photo studio/work/event space, and call it - Ministry of New. The space organically grew from there into one of the first collaborative workspaces in Mumbai. With the new funding, Ministry of New in Fort is a flagship compared to the original but still stays true to the same values of being welcoming, professional, collaborative, creative and relaxed.
