Imagine a room alive with possibility—45 entrepreneurial teams from every corner of Nepal, each carrying a vision to transform lives. That’s the energy I felt last week at National Idea Hunt Season 8, a flagship event by Idea Studio Nepal. As a Board Member, I’ve been part of this platform for years, but every event feels like a fresh spark of inspiration. For me, this isn’t just a role—it’s a deeply personal mission to nurture ideas that can shape Nepal’s future.

A Personal Journey of Mentorship

Over the years, I’ve mentored more than a dozen Nepali businesses, guiding them through the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship. It’s not just about formal workshops; it’s about late-night calls, brainstorming sessions, and turning moments of doubt into breakthroughs. Every entrepreneur has a story—a dream to solve a problem, uplift a community, or create something new. My role? To help them craft that story into something real, impactful, and lasting.

Last week’s six-day incubation for the Top 45 teams was a whirlwind of creativity and passion. I had the privilege of leading a session, sharing tools to help these founders stand out and succeed. Here’s what we dove into:

  • Authentic Storytelling: Crafting brand narratives that resonate with audiences on a human level.
  • Lessons from Brands: Exploring what makes global and local brands connect with hearts and minds.
  • Purpose-Driven Business: Positioning a venture for impact, not just profit.

But my connection with these entrepreneurs doesn’t end when the session does. Many of them, I’ll mentor throughout the year, walking alongside them as they refine their ideas, build their brands, and scale their dreams. It’s a journey I’m honored to be part of.

Idea Studio Nepal: A Movement for Change

If you’re new to Idea Studio Nepal, let me introduce you to a platform that’s transforming lives. By uniting academia, private sector, government, and media, Idea Studio turns entrepreneurial dreams into engines of national development. Its focus on innovation, inclusion, and impact ensures that the ideas we support aren’t just viable—they’re vital for Nepal’s progress.

I’ve watched Idea Studio grow from a bold concept into a powerhouse of entrepreneurship. Being part of this evolution has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my career. It’s a reminder that when we invest in ideas, we’re investing in people, communities, and a brighter future.

A Message to Nepal’s Dreamers

To the incredible entrepreneurs I met last week: Your ideas are the future of Nepal. You’re not just building startups—you’re starting change. Your courage, creativity, and vision inspire me every day. Keep pushing, keep believing, and never forget that your story matters.

At Vision Three Sixty, we live for moments like these—helping individuals and organizations craft narratives that drive impact. Whether it’s through mentorship, branding, or storytelling, we’re here to amplify voices that matter.

As I reflect on National Idea Hunt Season 8, I’m reminded of the power of a single idea to spark change. What’s an idea you’re passionate about? Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a leader, or someone with a vision, I’d love to hear your story. Let’s connect to nurture it, refine it, or bring it to life.
