Introduction to the Event

The ECAN Fair has been able to attract attention from the media, guardians, students, educational institutions and
other entities. It has been viewed as a great platform by consultancies, international education providers, educational
institutions in Nepal and others. This has led to increase in number of exhibitors, sponsors & visiting students and
guardians in the fair over the years. With the number of students aspiring to study abroad on the rise, the changes
in the scenario in study abroad opportunities, opening of new destinations, it has become imperative that ECAN &
its members come together to share the information with the public, media and other related individuals and groups.
Along with this, the event will also help demonstrate the organized nature of the practice of this profession and
strength of the industry. The educational fair, like in the previous years, will bring global education to Nepal and the

of the event which includes designing, promotional tools, participating institutions and others. Before and during
