The Nepalese Young Entrepreneurs’ Forum (NYEF) Lalitpur chapter successfully hosted the program “Discussion to Policy: Shaping Policy Through Entrepreneurial Voices” on 5 Chaitra 2082 at Himalayan Java. The initiative aimed to reduce the gap between entrepreneurship and policy-making by bringing entrepreneurs and key stakeholders together to share insights and experiences.
The program saw notable participation from entrepreneurs, business leaders, and relevant stakeholders from various sectors. Participants engaged in in-depth discussions on the major challenges and opportunities within Nepal’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Key topics included regulatory complexities hindering business expansion, limited financial access for start-ups, the need for innovation-friendly policies, and enhancing public-private collaboration.
The dialogue highlighted opportunities across production, services, technology, tourism, and handicraft sectors, emphasizing the need for policy facilitation, expanded market access, digitalization, and skill development to support sectoral growth. The handicraft sector, in particular, was noted for its cultural significance and potential in international markets, with calls for enhanced policy support to connect it globally.
A primary goal of the program was to translate dialogue into actionable policy recommendations. Insights and suggestions gathered from the discussion will be compiled into a “Memorandum of Request” by NYEF Lalitpur and submitted to the government, ensuring that entrepreneurial perspectives are formally included in policy-making processes.
Through this initiative, NYEF Lalitpur reaffirmed its commitment to fostering collaboration between the entrepreneurial community and policymakers and promoting a more business-friendly environment in Nepal.
