Why Kathmandu companies invest in software
With banks, wallets and tourism operators, businesses in Kathmandu face growing pressure to digitise operations, serve customers online and integrate with partners. The most common requests we receive from Kathmandu are media & entertainment.
Because Kathmandu draws talent from Tribhuvan University and Kathmandu University, many companies here run lean in-house teams and use NNT Software to add product engineering, QA, DevOps or AI skills on demand — with delivery scheduled around NPT (UTC+5:45) working hours.
