Kathmandu: The US Embassy supported the third CEO Dialogue in Chitwan. The dialogue brought together more than 80 entrepreneurs, innovators, investors, and ecosystem leaders to explore how artificial intelligence can help businesses increase productivity, reach new markets, attract investment, and compete globally.
Convened by the International Development Institute and Aadyanta Advisory, the dialogue featured Parag Shrestha of Fusemachines, who shared practical insights on AI-enabled business growth, investment readiness, market expansion, and real-world applications of AI across finance, tourism, customer service, and business operations. Through interactive discussions and a hands-on masterclass, participants assessed their readiness to scale beyond Nepal and identified practical ways to apply AI to real business challenges.
The Embassy stated that the CEO Dialogue series strengthens U.S.-Nepal commercial ties by connecting Nepali entrepreneurs with American expertise, technology, and private-sector leadership. The series creates new opportunities for innovation, investment, trade, and shared economic growth that benefit both the United States and Nepal.
