Mission

Incubate Nepal is an 8-week virtual program that connects students from all over Nepal to collaborate on open-ended projects. These students are matched with accomplished mentors as they navigate through their projects in small teams. Students will need to think creatively, deeply, and collaboratively as they write papers or prototype apps during the program. Mentors and guest speakers will also provide guidance on the US college admission process, as well as career advice in research and entrepreneurship. Incubate Nepal is completely free and available to students who have completed Grade 11 or Grade 12, and not yet enrolled in university.

This program was founded by a group of MIT and Harvard graduates to make project-based learning more accessible to students in Nepal. In addition to connecting students from all over Nepal, this virtual program offers mentorship and exposure to open-ended projects.

Incubate Nepal Fund
Donation drive for Incubate Nepal, a nonprofit organization that runs 10-week mentorship programs every year, connecting some of the most talented high school students from all over Nepal and from a range of socio-economic backgrounds, with young mentors in the United States to collaborate on open-ended projects. We are currently running a donation drive for our 2023 iteration! We utilize the funding to accomplish three main goals: - Provide support to our student leaders: As we grow as an organization, we have begun working with student leaders and coordinators who can manage teams and execute various logistical tasks. While they work with us on a voluntary basis, we would like to be able to reimburse them for various costs they incur. - Provide stipends to participants: Many of our participants come from rural and underprivileged backgrounds. For them, participating in a summer program like Incubate Nepal means foregoing potential income from summer work, which they use to assist their families. We do not want applicants to be stifled by such financial constraints, and therefore have piloted a stipend system where students can apply for stipends and reimbursements. - Sponsor and support increasingly sophisticated projects: Last year, for example, we made our first attempt at a mechanical engineering project, where students designed and built their first remote-controlled car from scratch. This involved sourcing microprocessors, parts, and paid access to workshops. We would like to keep providing such opportunities for our students!
