Connecting Startups & Investors

To strengthen the startup ecosystem in Koshi Province, the Chamber of Industries, Morang (CIM) has launched the Biratnagar Angel Investors Network (BAIN), a dedicated platform that connects early-stage startups with local angel investors. BAIN aims to bridge the critical financing gap by providing small-ticket investments and mentorship, enabling innovative startups to grow and thrive.

The Context of Angel Investment
