The Launch of Inspiration


Kathmandu: The BBA eight semester students of People's Campus organized a journal launch event on 9th May, 2018 in the premises of People's Campus, Paknajol kathmandu. This event was organized to celebrate the two print publications and two digital platforms initiated and led by the BBA students of the campus. The print publications include Management Vision- An opinion based magazine of business and entrepreneurship and Management Vision- A research based journal of Management and Economics while the digital platforms include a YouTube channel, PC VMAG, the first Video Magazine of People’s Campus and a blog www.nepalesebusinessandentrepreneurship.blogspot.com.
The research based journal includes papers written by highly qualified PHD holders and scholars in different areas of management, economics and HR, while the opinion based magazine is dedicated towards business and entrepreneurship in Nepal. It includes interviews with Mr. Sugat Kansakar,  MD of Nepal Airlines; Mrs. Kamini Rajbhandari, MD of Nepal Telecom; Mr. Saurabh Jyoti, Director of Jyoti Group and Dr. Raveena Desraj Shrestha, ADCEO of Mega Bank - four powerful people from four different fields of management and business.
The magazine also features articles about startups like Khalti, Khaalisisi.com, Eco Cell Industries, Studio Sarcastic and a few others written by the students of People`s Campus in gratitude to local and young entrepreneurs of Nepal who have inspired and showed us the opportunities here.
PC VMAG - the video magazine of People`s Campus - has been used as a platform for students to showcase their talent and creativity. PC VMAG has launched two segments so far, namely INS-P-IRER, which features the people who are the sources of inspiration to many Nepalese, and DIS-COVER, which aims to discover the talent within the campus. The VMAG is planning to launch a new segment, Entrepreneurial Hunt, in near future that wishes to feature young entrepreneurs, and their stories.
The journal was launched by the hands of the program chairman, Mr. Mangal Das Pradhanaga; Chief Guest, Prof. Dr. Tri Ratna Manandhar; Chief speaker, Prof. Dr. Tej Ratna Kansakar; and the Chief of People`s Campus, Mr. Nirmal Mani Panthi .
After the speeches from the guests, the FSU Vice-President and the editors, the co-coordinator of Management Vision, and the Director and Executive Producer of PC-VMAG, Mr. Pravash Rai gave a presentation regarding the origin, global reach and the future plans of the digital platforms, PC VMAG and the blog. After this, the BBA co-coordinator Mr. Rameshwar Karmacharya, and Asst. Campus Chief  Mr. Chhatra Mangal Bajracharya, also shared their words with the audience.
This was followed by the felicitation ceremony to the publication members and editors of the Management Vision, PC VMAG and the blog. The journal launch event was organized for the first time in People's Campus on such a grand scale, as the BBA students traditionally used to publish only an opinion based magazine annually in the past. A research based journal, a video magazine and a blog is the first of its kind in the campus history. It is a platform where the seniors are able to pave the way for the juniors and help them continue the legacy of People's Campus. As one junior member of People's Campus said, “This event helped inspire and challenge us to put in huge effort and tremendous dedication to make all these platforms sustainable”

Q.No.1 Honda is the leading Automobile brand in Nepal. What is the competitive advantage of Honda, why do you think it is unique from others?

Honda already has the R &D for 10-20 years down the line. So, based on that, I think it has come a long way. A

Interview with Sugat Ratna Kansakar, M.D, Nepal Air Corporation

Q.No.1 What is Management according to you? Answer: There are two aspects in Management. First is Management and the second is Leadership. When you reach higher posts like departmental chief, section chief, or even Chief Executive Officer, leadership becomes more important. The higher you go in posts, leadership aspects become more necessary than the managerial aspects. I think, in Nepal, people have the wrong notion that leadership and management are one and the same, which is absolutely wrong. Q.No.2 Is there any difference between management we learn in our syllabus and in the real world? Answer: Theoretical knowledge is always important. The application of those theories in practical life is the real challenge. The practice becomes difficult if you have poor theoretical knowledge in the field. So, you have to read books to understand all the technicalities and principles of management. In universities like Oxford and Harvard, the researches on the techniques of mana

While this industry is a billion dollar industry in the west, crowdfunding is still an arcane concept in Nepal. Before taking a dive into Crowdfunding for Startups, let us first understand what crowdfunding is and when you should opt for crowdfunding. Crowdfunding Crowdfunding is the process of raising many small sums of money from a large number of well-wishers and/or supporters of the project via internet. A crowdfunding platform like Kickstarter , Indiegogo or Grasruts aids in the crowdfunding process by already integrating a payment gateway, monitoring the fundraising process, and it gives security to the supporters' money, too. One of the iconic examples of crowdfunding in the history was the monumental base of the Statue of Liberty in New York, which was actually built with the crowdfunded money when the government failed to provi
