Kathmandu, Aug. 5
The
Nepal Association for Software and IT Services Companies (NAS-IT) is set to organise
the Nepal Tech Roadshow Europe 2026 (in the UK and Switzerland) from September
6 to 21.
The
roadshow aims to connect Nepali information technology (IT) companies with
European businesses, startups, investors, innovation hubs, and the Diaspora
technology community. “We want to create new opportunities for business
partnerships, technology exports, and foreign investment,” NAS-IT said in a
statement on Wednesday.
The
event is being organised with the support of the Swiss Agency for Development
and Cooperation (SDC) and Nepal in Business-Growth Advisors (supported by the UK
International Development and implemented by DAI Global UK).
The
Association had organised similar shows in Australia in 2025 and the United
States in 2026.
According
to Gaurav Pandey, President of NAS-IT, the roadshow will play a significant
role in connecting Nepal's IT industry directly with the European market.
"Nepali
IT companies have already demonstrated their capabilities in international
markets. Our next priority is to strengthen direct collaboration with European
businesses, investors, and the technology community,” he said.
He
also said that this roadshow will create opportunities for Nepali companies to
access new markets, build strategic partnerships, and establish long-term
business relationships. "It will also help position Nepal as a trusted
global technology partner," he said.
The
first phase of the roadshow will take place in the United Kingdom from
September 6-12, with the flagship event scheduled for September 9 in London
Heathrow. The programME will feature presentations and discussions on Nepal's
growing IT industry, the capabilities of Nepali technology companies,
international success stories, and opportunities for business collaboration.
More than 17 NAS-IT member companies will showcase their services, innovative
solutions, and technical expertise to an international audience.
Likewise,
the second phase of the roadshow will take place in Switzerland from September
13–21, with the flagship event scheduled for September 16 in Zurich. During
this period, participating companies will engage in business meetings,
networking sessions, and discussions with European businesses, startups,
innovation hubs, potential partners, and other stakeholders.
