Nepal CEO Conference & Awards - 2025

---

INTRODUCTION

The Nepal CEO Conference and Awards-2025 is a landmark initiative organized by Lokpath Media to honor and empower visionary leaders across diverse sectors. After a successful inauguration in 2018, the event had a successful continuation in 2019. However, it was discontinued from 2020 onwards on account of Covid-19 epidemic and the subsequent economic recession.

We have revived this highly successful event in 2025 with a total of 13 categories via a comprehensive registration system. It is designed to recognize individual excellence as well as to promote networking. Through keynote speeches, panel discussions, and workshops, the conference aims to become the premier annual gathering of Nepal’s most influential decision-makers.
