The 14th Uniglobe International Conference (UIC NDIBT-2025), organized by the prestigious Uniglobe College, represents a landmark event for higher education in Nepal. Led by Dr. Nar Bahadur Bista, Principal and Chairman, the conference brought together global researchers, domestic scholars, and industry leaders to explore "New Dimensions and Innovations in Business & Technology." As an institution affiliated with Pokhara University and a recipient of 35 academic gold medals, Uniglobe College continues to prioritize research-driven learning. By hosting delegates from the USA, Croatia, and South Africa, the college has established itself as a premier destination for students seeking an MBA or BBA degree with a truly international perspective, blending academic rigor with a mission to produce market-ready human resources.
The core discussion of the event, as highlighted by Prof. Dr. Radhe Shyam Pradhan, Academic Director, focused on the mandatory integration of original research into the BBA and MBA curriculum. International faculty, including Prof. Goran Vlasic and Prof. Zoran Krupka from the University of Zagreb, Croatia, shared profound insights into how Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digitalization are transforming global business models. The technical sessions provided a platform for students to present their research papers alongside seasoned academics, emphasizing a proactive approach to technology. This unique synergy between student participation and expert mentorship ensures that graduates are equipped with critical thinking skills and the technical proficiency required to thrive in a rapidly evolving global economy.
Beyond technical innovation, the conference emphasized the vital "People, Planet, and Profit" model, a theme championed by Dr. Sandra S. Rahman from Framingham State University, USA. This focus on sustainability and ethical leadership underscores Uniglobe’s unique strength in fostering socially responsible entrepreneurship. Prof. Ankit Katrodia of South Africa further highlighted how such global platforms convert dreams into reality by building international networks and over 50 institutional partnerships. Looking forward, the vision for Uniglobe College is to remain a leader in academic quality, using innovation and global connectivity to enhance the reputation of Nepal’s education system on the world stage while preparing students for high-impact careers.
