Bridging Development and Digital Security

Day 1: GitHub Conference Day (August 31, 2026):
Focuses on modern software development workflows, covering Git & GitHub, open source, AI integration, DevOps, cloud computing, CI/CD pipelines, and developer productivity tools.
Day 2: Cybersecurity Conference Day (September 1, 2026):
Shifts focus to digital defense, covering ethical hacking, secure coding principles, cyber defense strategies, AI/ML, prompt engineering, full-stack security, observability, and tech career pathways.
The program incorporates practical technical sessions, hands-on workshops, career guidance, and structured networking designed to connect participants with peer networks and industry mentors beyond their routine academic curriculum.
Regional Empowerment and Decentralized Learning
Hosting the national conference in Hetauda highlights the growing role of regional technology hubs outside the Kathmandu Valley. The event actively welcomes participants from Hetauda, Chitwan, Birgunj, and surrounding districts, creating a collaborative environment for local and visiting learners.
“Holding this conference in Hetauda expands tech opportunities across Nepal,” noted Abhishek Adhikari, Lead Organizer. “It provides local students and developers direct exposure to modern tools, industry practices, and national tech networks.”
