The seed for Uhdam was planted when I, the founder, moved from Nepal to Finland at the tender age of 19. The reality of studying abroad was starkly different from what was promised by local agents. Overwhelmed, I had to relearn almost everything to fit into my new professional world. This personal challenge sparked the idea for a platform that would prepare students comprehensively before they even step foot abroad, ensuring they face no such psychological hurdles.

However, the turning point came from a tragic incident: a young girl, misled by a consultancy, committed suicide after her tuition fees were stolen, and she faced deportation. This heartbreaking event solidified my resolve. Waiting was no longer an option when lives were at stake. Driven by a commitment to prevent such scams and empower students, I joined forces with a team of passionate educators and tech innovators. After 18 months of dedicated work, Uhdam was born—a platform that epitomizes trust, transparency, and student empowerment.
