Diyalo Foundation

Passion, dedication, and community - that's what Diyalo is all about! 🌟

Recently, our team gathered in Nepal and it was a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. Empowering Nepalese youth through tech development is our mission, and we're immensely grateful for our amazing team's support. Join our collaborative and solution-oriented community as we work towards local needs. Click the link in our bio to support the next generation of leaders and innovators in Nepal! 🙌✨

During the summer, Melinda visited our friends at Phutung Research Institute in Nepal. Melinda, who formerly worked as a Battery Regulation & Recycling Manager at Ferrari, supported the team with optimizing the power management of the WAS device. She wanted to contribute to the community in Nepal by putting her exceptional engineering skills to practice. Both PRI and ourselves are incredibly grateful to receive this kind of support.

Recently Mahip, who works as an Electronics Engineer at NIC, got the opportunity to Pitch the "Nyano Nani"-Project to a jury of professional investors. He explained the product, the market and the potential of the project. Mahip left the investors impressed with his great pitch deck, market analysis and roadmap. We are happy that we were able to make this pitch happen as we believe that receiving feedback and spreading the message is a crucial part of making a project truly successful. We look forward to many more opportunities to present our projects!

Recently we had the honour to present our medical drone project at a stakeholder conference in Nepal. The event was hosted by the Ministry of Health of the Government of Nepal and ‘NAXA’. We received incredibly valuable feedback from various stakeholders like drone manufacturers, the government, and NGOs. Because the government was impressed by our presentation, they showed ambitions to support drone projects in Nepal to increase medical care in rural regions of the country. We are excited to have the support and cannot wait to be part of the first pilot project soon.

We had an amazing day at the Europe Tour: Mahabir Pun, Founder of National Innovation Centre Nepal hosted by TU Delft . We were happy to have the opportunity to talk about the Diyalo Foundation, and share some insights about the medical drone project that we’ve been working on. Thank you to dr. Mahabir Pun, National Innovation Centre Nepal, Team Nitu Shrestha, NRNA Netherlands & Nepalese Engineers Association Holland for this wonderful day, full of energetic and important interactions! We look forward to future collaborations!

Project Update!

We are super excited to show you the progress we have made with our Water Quality project. Phutung Research Institute has developed a prototype that monitors the water quality and bacterial levels in ! They have developed a working prototype that already shows promising results (on the left), as well as a dummy of the prototype that is expected to look like after revamping the electronics (on the right). We are very proud of the progress that has been made, and more updates will come soon!

What an amazing University this is! Not only because of their wonderful campus in the mountains of Kathmandu, but especially because there are so many young and talented people walking around who can contribute to the better good of Nepal. We at Diyalo Foundation would be thrilled to collaborate with these youngsters and support them on their journey. Follow us for more updates on future projects with KU!

Last Friday the Provincial Innovation exhibition by the National Innovation Digital Network was hosted in Nepal. We felt truly honored to be speaking alongside Former Minister Dr. Dipal Gyawali, ministry of Water Resources for the Inno-Talk #7 “Championing Innovation in Nepal: Experts Perspective.” It was great to see so many innovators presenting their products and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for NIDN. Thank you for having us!

Kathmandu Institute of Applied Sciences is a nonprofit research institute, specializing in various scientific-analytical studies and the active development of new devices and products that they believe can compete with the global market. Most of them have already completed the R&D phase and we would love to help to bring them to market. We have agreed to map out possible projects and collaborations in which Diyalo’s expertise could be a great support for KIAS. Stay tuned for further updates on our collaboration.
