Education + Design + Entrepreneurship
DoLAB was established in 2018 at King’s College, Nepal as a part of the college’s incubation and entrepreneurship education efforts. At DoLAB we continually learn, experiment with and create programs that catalyze and manifest innovation. This includes taking experiences of working with the industry into the classroom and bringing innovation and design practices from the classroom to the industry. We base our activities in the principles of human centered design and merge Education, Design and Entrepreneurship. Our method is based on the Lab Studio Model, designed in Oulu University of Applied Sciences, Finland.

What we do
Do Camp
3 to 5-day camps designed to take participants through a highly engaging and intense process to understand the principles of human centered design in a hands-on manner around real design problems around us.
Concept / Demo Creation
2-month, 6-credit (each) programs designed and implemented at King’s College for MBA, BBA and BSIT students along with select industry professionals. Inspired by the LAB Studio Model designed in Oulu University of Applied Sciences, these programs act as pre-incubators to help develop products, services and processes along with a self-directed, creative, collaborative, critical thinking and entrepreneurial mindset in participants.
Do Shop
DoSHOPs are DoLAB’s design consulting projects. These include designing and implementation of workshops as well as product and service design projects for organizations that partner with us.
