Project YuwaXcel

About the Project

Project YuwaXcel is a youth-focused startup acceleration initiative addressing key gaps faced by young entrepreneurs in Nepal, including limited access to mentorship, incubation, funding, and global exposure. Through a nationwide call, YuwaXcel sources promising startup ideas and supports them through hands-on workshops, expert mentorship, and investor pitching opportunities. In collaboration with platforms such as American Spaces, NUSAN, AmCham, and StartUp Resource Hub (Momo VC), the initiative ensures strong local relevance with global insight. The top teams receive individualized mentoring and showcase their ventures at a high-impact finale, nurturing tech-driven, impact-focused solutions that contribute to inclusive economic growth in Nepal.
