This initiative underscores India's commitment to fostering entrepreneurial ties with its neighboring countries. The three-day event is proving to be a crucial opportunity for Nepalese startups to interact with investors, industry leaders, and policymakers from India and beyond. With Nepal's startup ecosystem on the rise, such events allow young entrepreneurs to gain exposure, secure investments, and explore expansion possibilities in international markets. Startup Mahakumbh, currently being held in New Delhi, has brought together thousands of startups, investors, policymakers, and industry leaders, making it a vital platform for networking and exploring business synergies.
