Kathmandu, January 16 The Nepalese Young Entrepreneurs’ Forum (NYEF) is set to organise ‘Young Entrepreneurs Summit-Women (YES-W)’ on January 20 (Saturday). The fourth edition of the one-day event will be organised here with an intention to promote women entrepreneurship in particular and entrepreneurship in the country in general, as per YES-W Committee. “There are various obstacles to promote entrepreneurial growth of youth in the country. The YES-W will basically intend to inspire young people planning start-up projects and motivate them to become an entrepreneur,” said Juna Mathema, chairperson of YES-W. Moreover, Mathema added that the event would be a double benefit platform for participants as they would not only be able to float their entrepreneurial ideas and showcase their products, but also get motivated by other young entrepreneurs who have successfully started different business ventures.

Along with experience-sharing, the event will have inspirational talks, panel discussions on scopes and challenges of entrepreneurship in Nepal, different workshops and networking activities.
