Global Minds, Local Impact: King’s College to Host Game-Changing Entrepreneurship Forum This July

Kathmandu – Nepal is set to witness a major surge in entrepreneurial energy as King’s College announces the return of the Nepal Entrepreneurship Forum (NEF) 2025, scheduled for July 26–27 in Kathmandu. With over 25+ international speakers from Finland, Japan, India, Bangladesh, Kosovo, and Nepal, this high-impact conference is drawing attention as one of the most ambitious gatherings of entrepreneurial thought leaders in the region.
Under the theme “Towards Sustainable Entrepreneurship Ecosystem,” the two-day event promises to be more than just a conference. It’s positioned to become a launchpad for innovation, a networking haven, and a think tank for those invested in shaping the future of business in developing countries.
Organized by King’s College, pioneer in business and entrepreneurship education in Nepal, NEF aims to bridge the critical gap between academic research and real-world enterprise. The event will host a diverse mix of entrepreneurs, scholars, policymakers, professionals, and change-makers to engage in curated sessions featuring research presentations, panel discussions, solution showcases, and strategic networking.
“Such an entrepreneurship conference in Nepal fosters innovation, creates vital networks, supports economic growth, tackles unemployment, promotes sustainable development, and helps young entrepreneurs overcome unique challenges in a developing country context,” said Chittaranjan Pandey, Conference Convener and professor at King’s College.
What sets NEF 2025 apart is its sharp focus on sustainability and the SDGs. The forum is designed not only to celebrate entrepreneurial success but also to explore long-term, impact-driven solutions for pressing global challenges, all from a uniquely Nepali and regional perspective.
With more than 200 participants expected, including government representatives, development partners, and students, NEF 2025 is shaping up to be a melting pot of inspiration and collaboration.
