We are looking forward to meeting a small yet powerful bunch representing the hope for Nepal’s future.

Through this six day workshop promoting the spirit and skill of entrepreneurship, which also sensitizes young people about economic freedom and policy regime, young people explore alternative ideas for Nepal’s existing problems. This includes understanding the value of entrepreneurship and learning the know-how of building new businesses and injecting new ideas into the economy for promoting economic reform. The program will include mock debates; business simulations that will help youth understand the importance of entrepreneurship, implications of various policy measures and role of private sector and government in economic reform. There will be case studies, lectures from experts and various experiences sharing sessions. More about the methods and success of the program HERE.
