About First Deal Nepal
Business is built
on relationships.
We bring businesses, project promoters, investors and international companies together around opportunities in Nepal.
Why we exist
Connecting businesses
with the right people.
Businesses seeking capital and people exploring opportunities do not always find each other easily. First Deal Nepal brings owners, project promoters, investors and potential partners into relevant business conversations.
We begin with the objective, explore suitable connections and support the discussions that follow. For international companies, that can include finding a local partner and exploring entry into the Nepal market.
