ABOUT STARTUP HUDDLE KATHMANDU
Startup Huddle Kathmandu is a monthly educational program that gives local startups the opportunity to give a six-minute presentation and engage in 20 minutes of Q&A with a room full of their peers, mentors, service providers and potential investors.
Startup Huddle is a global initiative of Global Entrepreneurs Network which is hosted across different countries with it’s culture that of a supportive, neutral space, welcoming entrepreneurs to be open and honest about their businesses and the challenges they face. Each event is organized by local entrepreneurs and community builders who volunteer their time to secure a venue, vet and select presenters and publicize the event.
As opposed to a traditional “pitch” environment, Startup Huddle was not created to be critical of entrepreneurs, but rather for the presenters to learn from shared experiences and find ways to support one another as a community.
Startup Huddle Kathmandu is an educational experience for both the audience and the presenters. This is a free community program, focused on lowering the barriers to entry into the startup community. That is the core reason, Startup Huddle Kathmandu focuses on engaging all the startup ecosystem actors together to continually create a connected ecosystem that supports everyone.
