📍 Kathmandu, Nepal | 🗓️ May 2025
In May 2025, I took a step that had been on my mind for years. Together with a close colleague and family member, we started Digital Cat IT Solutions, a full-service technology company in Kathmandu. After spending more than a decade in international IT and leadership roles, I felt it was the right time to create something of our own. Something built with purpose, creativity, and care.
Digital Cat is not just another IT firm. For us, it is a space where thoughtful design meets practical development. We want to build software, apps, and digital platforms that do more than just work. They should make life easier, solve problems, and support people in their goals.
The idea for Digital Cat grew out of years of listening. Listening to community partners, to students who were eager to learn, and to clients who often felt frustrated with one-size-fits-all tech solutions. We noticed a clear gap for companies that could deliver modern, people-focused digital tools while still staying affordable, local, and personal. That is what we set out to build.
Our work rests on a few simple values:
- Keeping technology simple and useful
- Being transparent and honest in how we work
- Innovating with a clear purpose
- Always remembering the people behind the technology
Right now, we are a small but determined team. We have already started creating tools for schools, small businesses, NGOs, and learners through our Beeja Training initiative. We are also helping organizations with IT consulting, UX design, and digital transformation. Each project is a chance to grow, to learn, and to add something meaningful.
Starting Digital Cat has reminded me why I chose this path in the first place. Technology is not only about products or code. It is about building trust, creating opportunities, and making a real impact.
I am excited for the journey ahead and grateful to everyone who has supported us in these early days. If you are reading this and feel we could work together, or even just want to say hello, I would love to hear from you.
Let’s build something remarkable together.
