Chilean support for a Nepali Startup

I am always pleased to see Nepal making some great news (of course in a positive sense). Interestingly, the IT or for that matter IT-eS and ICT sector of Nepal coming into international picture is more appealing to me. Now that is definitely making some noise is Picovico. With constant efforts put into making the best out of their startup, Picovico had applied for Start-up Chile, a program created by the Chilean Government that seeks to attract high-potential entrepreneurs to bootstrap their start-ups in Chile, using it as a platform to go global.


Earlier in July 2011, Picovico was selected for The Morpheus Ventures, a startup accelerator based in India, and received an initial funding which took them to a greater height. Now, with Start-up Chile they have added another international wing to their portfolio and are on a get-set-go for a purely global exposure.

For the dim wits, Picovico is a product from Janaki Technology Pvt. Ltd., a leading IT company in Nepal. It’s a tool that converts images to interesting videos with beautiful transitions and music. The product is simple and anyone can use it to create their memorable videos out of their favorite photos in just a few clicks!

Janaki Technology also owns products like Sparrow SMS which offers wide range of SMS VAS services and Social Aves which offers social media services to companies in Nepal.

Years of hard work, dedication and passion is what brings the brilliant team to this level today. With Picovico, Janaki Technology has stepped into the international arena creating an inspiring story for the young entrepreneurs of Nepal.
Looking forward for Global products from Nepal!
