This year’s edition of the program attracted over 650 applications from promising university students across Nepal. Following a competitive screening process, 30 students were shortlisted to participate in a series of technical trainings, workshops, and cultural exchanges aimed at nurturing the next generation of ICT leaders.
As part of the program, students visited a state-of-the-art data center in Kathmandu to gain practical exposure to how large-scale digital infrastructure operates. In addition, a workshop titled “Leveraging Technology for Multilingualism and Cultural Diversity” was organized by UNESCO in Nepal at the UN House, offering students a platform to engage in meaningful dialogue around culture, inclusion, and technology.

Throughout the training phase, students were introduced to key digital technologies such as 5G, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cloud Computing, and Clean Energy solutions, preparing them for the global digital economy.
The final interviews were held on June 25, 2025, where the shortlisted students were evaluated based on their CVs and core judging criteria: communication skills, tech aptitude, creative thinking, global awareness, SDG alignment, leadership qualities, and personal motivation.
The jury for the final evaluation comprised the experts from the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, UNESCO, Nepal Telecom, and Huawei Nepal.
After careful assessment, the top five students selected for the regional round are: Adarsha Shrestha, Apala Timilsina, Dinanath Padhya, Manjila Pandey, and Stuti Dhungana.
