KATHMANDU: The Startup Summit Nepal 2024, scheduled for December 17, promises to be a transformative event for startups in Nepal and beyond.
The Startup Network (Nepal) has collaborated with Confederation of Nepalese Industries (CNI) and PHDCCI (India - Nepal Centre) for this summit.
At a press meet organised by The Startup Network in Kathmandu on Friday, it was revealed that the summit will feature keynotes, panel discussions, startup pitching sessions, and networking opportunities to empower entrepreneurs with the knowledge, resources, and connections they need to scale their ventures.
The summit aims to bridge the gap between local startups and international investors, attracting significant investment into Nepal's burgeoning startup scene. The Startup Network is making strides in accelerating Nepal's startup ecosystem, with a mission to build a sustainable, inclusive, and thriving entrepreneurial landscape. The organisation plays a pivotal role in connecting startups with investors, mentors, and resources, thus supporting Nepal's emerging entrepreneurs and innovators.
"One of the most pressing issues facing Nepal is the brain drain phenomenon, where talented individuals leave the country for better opportunities abroad. The Startup Summit Nepal 2024 aims to counter this 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 in Nepal," said Piyush Mahat, Chief Executive Officer of The Startup Network, at the press meet.
Through its comprehensive incubation programme, the Startup Network is already making waves in the entrepreneurial landscape. This bi-monthly initiative supports startups from the inception of an idea to the creation of a compelling pitch deck. Entrepreneurs benefit from personalised mentorship provided by a dedicated team of successful startup mentors and entrepreneurs, who guide them through the critical stages of idea validation, business model development, and market entry strategies.
In addition to its incubation activities, The Startup Network is establishing its venture fund to further support startup growth. 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 Nepal's vibrant entrepreneurial spirit 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 to explore the future of innovation, forge meaningful connections, and drive the next wave of entrepreneurial success in Nepal and beyond.
