KATHMANDU: The Startup Network (TSN), a pioneering platform for nurturing and investing in early-stage startups, has announced the much-anticipated Startup Summit Nepal 2024, scheduled to take place at Aloft Kathmandu Thamel on October 27.

This landmark event aims to bring together visionary entrepreneurs, seasoned investors, and industry leaders from around the world to foster innovation and propel Nepal’s startup ecosystem onto the global stage.

A Visionary Summit with Global Impact

The Startup Summit Nepal 2024 is set to be a game-changing event for startups in Nepal and beyond. As a central hub for innovation and investment, the Summit will feature a series of keynotes, panel discussions, startup pitching sessions, and networking opportunities designed to empower entrepreneurs with the knowledge, resources, and connections they need to scale their ventures. With a focus on bridging the gap between local startups and international investors, the Summit aims to attract significant investment into Nepal’s burgeoning startup scene.

Empowering Startups through Incubation and Mentorship

The Startup Network is already making waves in the entrepreneurial landscape through its comprehensive incubation programme. This bi-monthly initiative supports startups from the very inception of an idea through to the creation of a compelling pitch deck. Entrepreneurs participating in the programme benefit from personalised mentorship provided by a dedicated team of successful startup mentors and entrepreneurs. These mentors bring a wealth of experience and industry expertise, guiding startups through the critical stages of idea validation, business model development, and market entry strategies. “At The Startup Network, we believe in the transformative power of innovation and entrepreneurship,” said Piyush Mahat, Chief Operating Officer of The Startup Network. “Our incubation programme is designed to equip startups with the tools and mentorship they need to turn their ideas into viable, scalable businesses. The upcoming Summit will further amplify these efforts by connecting our entrepreneurs with global investors and industry experts, opening up new avenues for growth and success.”

Addressing Brain Drain and Creating Opportunities

“One of the most pressing issues faced in Nepal is the phenomenon of brain drain, where talented individuals leave the country in search of better opportunities abroad. The Startup Summit Nepal 2024 aims to counter this trend by showcasing the dynamic potential of Nepal’s entrepreneurial sector and creating opportunities for local talent. By providing a platform for Nepali startups to connect with global investors and industry leaders, the Summit seeks to inspire and retain the country’s brightest minds, offering them viable pathways to build and scale their ventures right here in Nepal,” said Piyush Mahat, Chief Operating Officer of The Startup Network.

Building a Future-Ready Ecosystem

In addition to its incubation activities, The Startup Network is also in the process of establishing its own venture fund to further support the growth of startups. This fund will provide crucial financial backing to promising startups, enabling them to scale and succeed in competitive markets. Furthermore, TSN is expanding its global reach by creating opportunities for Nepali startups to connect with international incubation programmes and investment opportunities. The Startup Summit Nepal 2024 will serve as a launchpad for these ambitious plans, showcasing the vibrant entrepreneurial spirit of Nepal to a global audience and positioning the country as a key player in the global startup ecosystem.

Entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders are invited to join The Startup Network at the Startup Summit Nepal 2024.
