The future of Nepal’s tech industry

Tech brands that rely on a ‘made in Nepal’ sentiment to sustain their businesses are destined to ‘die in Nepal’.

Over the next 12-24 months, most tech companies in Nepal will face existential challenges. Those that do not turn to outsourcing will cease to exist. The global war for talent and the culture of celebrity entrepreneurship are accelerants for the ongoing change. If appropriately managed, this shift can potentially re-orient Nepal’s growth trajectory in a materially favourable direction.
