Another participant of Startup Valley Navaraj Pandey, CEO at kpadhne.com said, “Our website has information about different educational institutes across Nepal. It is a guide for students and parents to find apt educational institutes. Most of the speakers at this conference are from Southeast Asia, so this is a great opportunity for us to learn from their experiences.”
