Event Collaborations

Reading is a habit which every individual should incorporate into their lives. As the famous saying by George R.R. Martin goes, “ A Reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, The man who never reads lives only one.” Fueling our mission of #NepalReads, we thought, what could be better than reaching out to the masses through events organized by young minds of Nepal? 

Five months into 2024, and what an exciting year it has been so far for Thuprai. We've been more than just gift partners in various events and shows. Our active involvement has sparked a love for reading and literature, inspiring many. Check out the events we've had the privilege to be a part of:

1. Rato Rupaiya Podcast: Rato Rupaiya is a mushrooming business podcast started by Ms. Riya Shrestha, which witnessed guests from different flourishing startups and businesses in Nepal. Some hearty conversations, some intellectual conversations, and some wisdom, with books on leadership and business, were gifts from thuprai for the guests. 

2. One Club Nepal: This club initiative was started by young co-founders. In their first event, they organized a one-of-a-kind meetup with Nepal's business minds and influencers, which saw 100+ participants from different sectors. We were glad to empower the business minds with business book gifts from Thuprai. 

3. Leo Club MUN: Models United Nations (MUN) is a well-known event where students roleplay as United Nations delegates. Organizer Riyaz Gautam shared his experience, "Thuprai, as book Gift Partners for LEO MUN, greatly enriched our event through their generous sponsorship. Their curated selection of books, perfectly aligned with the intellectual spirit of MUN, added immense value.” It was our delight to gift books on business and economics to the budding leaders. 

4. Happy Minds Chiya Guff Session: Happy Minds is a leading mental health platform in Nepal that has improved the lives of millions of people and is actively working to break taboos around mental health. Amidst its many initiatives, Chiya Guff Session is an event they organize that people can attend for free to learn more about mental health and mindfulness. Getting a chance to be a part of their initiative by providing Self-Help Books as gift hampers was a liberating experience for Thuprai.

5. Tedx Pulchowk: The event, organized by the young minds of Pulchowk College, featured a panel of guest speakers from diverse sectors such as the National Planning Education, Education Ministry, Supermodels, and more. We gifted the voices of the nation books on the economics and business of Nepal. 

6. ASCOL Hult Prize: The Hult Prize is a brilliant event that provides a platform for students to pitch their business ideas and take them to a global level. Equipping the winners with business books, we wish to see them flourish in the future.

7. Ace Toastmasters, Presidential Toastmasters, ACAN Toastmasters: Toastmasters is a worldwide renowned platform for developing public speaking and leadership skills. Getting to be part of the platform with book gifts for guest speakers across various genres like fiction, non-fiction, geography, and much more was extremely delightful.
