We are collaborating with Boston International College to jointly work in the areas of entrepreneurship, employment and fostering entrepreneurial culture in Chitwan district. The twenty-first century is all about achieving economic prosperity and Chitwan Association of Industries is actively working on this front by strongly advocating for the welfare of industries and business enterprises. World’s economic landscape is changing faster than ever and the economic hub is shifting towards Asia with the emergence of economic powerhouses like China, India, Indonesia, Korea, Vietnam, etc. Nepal is poised to take advantage of this emerging opportunity being at the center of two rising economies.

Industry and academia collaboration is instrumental to navigate this changing economic landscape. Academia and industry both have gone into trouble working in silos, because graduates are unable to secure employment and industries are struggling to find skilled employees vital for the operation and growth of the organization. We cowork on the areas of shared goals through Rojgar Bank – a portal that connects employees and employers, loan facilitation to BIC Startups’ incubatees from CAI’s cooperative, mentoring, seed-funding and investing in high potential ventures that originate from Boston International College (BIC Startups), collaborative research, job creation, internships, and field visit to the industries by students of Boston International College.

I visited Boston International College in February 2020 to give a two-hour presentation on ‘Storytelling for Effective Leadership and Mentoring’. This was for the students as well as for the professionals working in nearby companies. During and after the presentation, I interacted with the students, and found them to be smart, articulate, ambitious and interested in asking questions and learning more. I toured the campus, and found the infrastructure to be very good — with spacious grounds, well-equipped classrooms and a busy cafeteria. I was impressed that the College wanted to make the best of all the available learning and teaching opportunities. To that end, I was encouraged to learn that the College had started networking with other academic institutions in and out of Nepal to broaden both the students and the faculty’s horizons.

“I am really pleased to receive a one-to-one coaching session from BIC Startups. I was assigned to receive coaching from coach and mentor Mr. Bijendra Shah.

My working experience with my mentor was full of possibilities for further expansion and easy execution of tasks which I normally thought to be complicated. I also received advice about resource optimization and task delegation. Upon applying the techniques shared by my mentor, I was able to increase sales and achieve further business growth. I really appreciate the support I received from my mentor as well as BIC Startups.”

“First of all, I would like to appreciate Boston International College for doing the amazing incubation program. Also, I would like to thank the entire team for trusting me that I can be a part of this beautiful initiation.

I had a very fruitful experience with one of the incubatees from BIC Startups. The four weeks that I discussed with Botecden (Urban Farming) was very productive for both of us. Even I got the opportunity to learn about rooftop and urban farming. I believe the sound knowledge of products and as well as the market is very important for all the startups. Manisha’s motivation and desire for growth is unmatchable. She is so passionate and focused on what she is doing. I have always been the mentor for her steps ahead. I wish her and the BIC startups for the grand success.”
