Similar to the WEF-2075, Nepal recently organized the Startup Exhibition & Expo on June 4, 2018. The one-day event was aimed at promoting Nepali start-ups and presenting them with big ventures to boost their businesses. The start-up culture is beginning to kick-off and has a bright scope in the country.

Nepal is conducting many such initiatives and is encouraging citizens to setup their dream projects and businesses. We hope that more and more Nepalis are empowered through such initiatives with support from the government and related associations.
