Applications open
We fund Nepali startups and help them go global.
Apply with your startup. If we say yes, we fund you and we work with you until you're selling to the world.
What we do.
We fund you
We put money into your company so you can build full-time. You see the terms in writing before you sign anything.
We work with you
Weekly sessions with founders like you, and office hours with operators who have grown products with SEO, content, and paid ads. We keep working with you for as long as it helps.
We open doors
Intros to investors, to your first customers abroad, and to founders one step ahead of you.
The operators involved
We publish names when people have committed time, not letterhead.
How we help you go global.
Every company moves at its own speed. The work follows the same path.
Set up
Company, bank account, payments. A price on your product that the world can pay.
Get found
SEO, content marketing, paid ads, and AEO so AI tools recommend you. Distribution that compounds, not one-off pushes.
Grow
Hire in Nepal. Get your numbers in shape. Meet the investors we bring in.
We don't chase leads one by one. We help you build growth systems that compound and scale. And when you're ready, you present to investors we invite.
Who should apply.
Apply if
- You're Nepali, in Nepal or abroad, and building for the world
- You have a working product, or early customers
- Or you're early, but your team is strong
- You'll go full-time if we fund you
Not yet
- Agencies and service businesses. Good businesses, different playbook
- Local-only plans, for now. The directory is still yours
- Not ready to go full-time yet
Not sure? Apply anyway. The worst case is you get honest feedback.

Questions, answered straight.
Do you invest money?
Yes. We put money into every startup we accept. You see the terms in writing before you sign anything.
What do you take?
A small piece of your company, on standard terms. Same for everyone. No fees, nothing hidden.
What does it cost me?
Nothing. Applying is free and the program is free. We win only if your company wins.
How long does the program run?
As long as it helps. We work with you until you're selling to the world. There's no fixed end date.
Do I have to move?
No. We work remote-first, with in-person sessions in Kathmandu when we can.
I'm very early. Should I still apply?
Yes. We'd rather see you early than not at all. Tell us honestly where you are.
