For years, Nepal’s tech expos have been a blend of excitement and repetition , flashy gadgets, startup booths, and keynote speeches that rarely led to long-term impact. But NAS-IT Expo 2025 is poised to break that mold. Happening on November 7–8 at Heritage Garden, Sanepa, this two-day event promises to be a marketplace, not just a showcase.
Presented by Tigg as the Title Sponsor and backed by major players like eSewa, Reduct, Ncell Business, Vianet, and Data World, this isn’t your run-of-the-mill expo. It’s a well-thought-out, business-centric gathering designed to push Nepal’s IT scene from local buzzwords to boardroom decisions.
With a bold vision focused on AI integration, digital transformation, and deal-making, the NAS-IT Expo 2025 is signaling that Nepal’s tech ecosystem is no longer just catching up , it’s ready to lead.
The Purpose of Tech Events
In conversation with NAS-IT President Gaurav Pandey, it’s clear that this expo is different by design. “NAS-IT Expo 2025 is designed to create a dedicated platform where Nepal’s IT companies and industry leaders can engage meaningfully, explore opportunities, and foster collaborations that drive digital transformation,” he shares.
What sets this event apart is its commitment to closing the gap between providers and decision-makers. The expo is structured as a dynamic tech bazaar , where products meet procurement teams, innovators meet investors, and ideas are translated into implementation.
While expos in Nepal often emphasize branding or job fairs, NAS-IT Expo flips the script. It’s aiming to facilitate strategic partnerships, foster real B2B conversations, and launch scalable solutions that can be integrated into enterprises, not just admired from afar.
A Marketplace for Innovation
The NAS-IT Expo is Nepal’s first business-centric technology expo, and that phrasing is not accidental. This event has been curated to give decision-makers from corporates, financial institutions, manufacturing, hospitality, healthcare, education, and the public sector a one-stop shop for exploring enterprise-grade digital solutions.
Over 30 leading tech companies will be exhibiting everything from enterprise software, AI-driven automation tools, cloud solutions, to next-gen services that are tailor-made for South Asian markets. Expect live demos, exclusive launch presentations, and an environment built for strategic transactions rather than mere brand visibility.
Whether you're looking for a digital payment solution, a smart CRM, an ERP tool, or an AI chatbot for customer support , this is where you find it, understand it, and possibly sign on the dotted line.
Why AI and Digital Transformation Take Center Stage
Let’s be honest: AI has evolved from a buzzword to a boardroom mandate. In the post-pandemic business landscape, automation, predictive analytics, and machine learning-based efficiencies are no longer optional. They are essential.
Recognizing this, NAS-IT Expo 2025 places AI at the heart of the conversation. Participating companies are expected to showcase AI-powered solutions tailored for sectors such as finance, logistics, retail, and governance. These aren’t Silicon Valley demos , they are localized, practical tools meant for the Nepali market.
This AI focus also reflects a broader ambition: to position Nepal as a regional IT powerhouse, not just a consumer of tech trends. And by connecting developers and startups with investors, funders, and institutions under one roof, the event could create ripple effects well beyond the two-day schedule.

While the full schedule is yet to be released, several core components make NAS-IT Expo 2025 a standout event:

Who Should Attend (and Why It Matters)
If you're a business owner, IT manager, digital transformation lead, or startup founder, this expo isn’t just relevant, it might be essential.
For corporates and institutions, it's a chance to discover turnkey solutions and engage in meaningful conversations with the people building them. For entrepreneurs, it’s an opportunity to pitch, partner, or pivot based on real-world feedback. And for investors? It’s a front-row seat to Nepal’s tech talent pipeline.
In essence, NAS-IT Expo 2025 is not just about discovering what's next in tech, it’s about participating in shaping it.
The Bigger Picture: Why This Expo Signals a Shift
Nepal's IT industry has long grappled with a paradox: immense talent and potential, but limited global recognition and B2B traction. NAS-IT Expo 2025 seems determined to break that ceiling.
By moving beyond traditional "expo culture" and toward a deal-driven, transformation-focused environment, the event is setting a new standard. It’s not about exhibition, it’s about execution. Not about vision, but viable action.
This is the kind of platform that invites government bodies, corporates, and solution providers to speak the same language, innovation. And that, more than anything else, could accelerate Nepal’s transition into a truly digital economy.
Conclusion
With strategic sponsorships, industry-wide participation, and a clearly defined agenda centered around business growth, AI, and enterprise solutions, NAS-IT Expo 2025 could be a turning point for Nepal’s digital landscape.
It’s not just an expo. It’s a declaration that Nepal is ready to play in the global digital arena not just as a consumer, but as a creator, partner, and player in its own right.
