KATHMANDU: Genese Solution – a leading IT consulting company, and Kageshwori Manohara muncipality, have joined forces to establish the Genese Technology & Excellence Center (G-TEC) with a view to support local youth to gain tech skills and prepare them for employment opportunities in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector.
During an event organised at Mulpani, Kathmandu on Saturday to announce the establishment of G-TEC, Mayor of Kageshwori Manohara muncipality, Mr Upendra Karki, emphasised the vast opportunities that tech education could bring to the community. “Today’s youths are looking for education that could lead them to a gainful employment. We are so happy to collaborate with Genese Solution and would like to extend our sincere thanks to Genese for this timely initiative,” he said.
Chairman of ward no 6 of Kageshwori Manohara muncipality, Prakash Phuyal, said that many youths were going abroad as they would not get any employment locally. He thanked Genese Solution for providing such an opportunity to local youths in their own community and expressed full support from the municipality.
During the event, founder and CEO of Genese Solution, Anjani Phuyal, introduced the project and its goals. “This Center will empower community members including local youth by providing industry-aligned skills, fostering innovation, and creating pathways to sustainable employment. Genese Solution will organise tech bootcamp so as to train local youth in web development, data science, AI and Cybersecurity, among others,” said Mr Phuyal adding, “We will connect local youth to certificate awarding courses offered by AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud which would directly link them to the IT job market,”
He also thanked Mayor Karki, chairman of ward no. 6 Prakash Phuyal, and the entire municipality team for their support and encouragement in establishing G-TEC.
A ‘Girls in Tech’ group has also been formed so as to promote women’s participation in the tech sector. Nearly 70 local youths have already signed up with the Centre to join various courses, a press statement said.
