New Delhi: The third edition of the International Entrepreneurship Conclave–Connect (IN), as part of the year-long Azaadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, commemorating the 75th anniversary of India’s Independence, will be held in Kathmandu on February 5.
The Embassy of India in Kathmandu, in collaboration with Clock-B Business Innovations, Kathmandu, will organize the event to strengthen the start-up ecosystems.
The Conclave will also include the first-ever India@75 Ideathon from January 27 to 29 for the students of different disciplines in Kathmandu-based educational institutions.
The Ideathon, under four domains of cross-border commerce, agriculture markets, urban development, and governance, aims to engage Nepal’s young people in finding tech-enabled solutions for daily life.
The pre-event activation camps for the Connect (IN) Conclave were held in schools around Nepal.
In its previous two editions, Connect (IN) provided a platform for young entrepreneurs, investors, venture capitalists, and experts from Nepal and India to learn from and connect with each other in a variety of domains.
