  • Support Local Businesses: Dedicated spaces for local artisans, SMEs, and startups to promote their businesses with direct-to-consumer interactions.
  • Charity & Social Causes: Encourages users to support or create charity events for social causes like disaster relief (Nepal being earthquake-prone), educational initiatives, and health campaigns.

3. Nepal-Centric Marketplace

  • Buy/Sell Locally: An integrated marketplace where users can buy and sell goods like handicrafts, traditional clothing, and local products (Think of it as a cross between Facebook Marketplace and Etsy for Nepal).

4. Cultural Events & Festivals

  • Event Calendar Integration: A Nepali cultural calendar that highlights upcoming festivals and events, allowing users to RSVP and participate virtually or in person.
  • Live Streaming of National Events: Nepive would offer live streams of major national events such as Dashain celebrations, Holi events, Buddha Jayanti, and others.
  • Virtual Prayer Groups & Temple Visits: With many users being religious, Nepive could feature virtual spaces where users gather for online prayers, temple visits, or ceremonies during festivals.

3. Marketplace Transactions:

  • Language Barriers: Solution: Ensure smooth translations between Nepali and other local dialects, making the platform accessible to all ethnic groups.
