The Ministry of Federal Affairs in collaboration with Idea Studio Nepal developed a guideline and organized a Talent Forum Program with an objective to develop the capacity and entrepreneurial mindset of the government employees and to innovate in policy formulation and implementation. The program’s main goal is to foster innovative ideas of bureaucrats, government employees for effectiveness in service delivery, agility in development management, and promotion of good governance in the public sector.
Prabhu Idea Plus is a unique initiative launched in collaboration between Idea Studio Nepal and Prabhu Bank Limited to foster entrepreneurship in the Gandaki Province of Nepal: Kalika Multiple Campus, Dhawalagiri Multiple Campus, and Myagdi Multiple Campus. This initiative combines academic innovation with entrepreneurship and financial support, establishing a pioneering model for sustainable development within academic institutions. This is the first collaborative effort by the two organizations to promote an entrepreneurial mindset and ecosystem within academic institutions.
Prabhu Bank and the Idea Studio Nepal jointly initiated the project ‘सहयात्रा समृद्धिको – Partnership for Prosperity’, a relief loan scheme. It is a special loan scheme for economic recovery aimed at supporting female safa tempo drivers and school/college teachers to manage their lives and resume their ongoing businesses in this pandemic. This initiation is also an attempt to restore human dignity with loan as a support mechanism for a lifetime of financial decisions.
