The last event of Startup Grind hosted Naeem Nazari at Kabul - Afghanistan.
Mr. Nazari has completed his primary education in Balkh province. He got his bachelor in political science in Kabul. He had an intense desire in entrepreneurship while studying, and at times he adapted small logistic service projects to the best of his ability. Alongside this, he would prepare small business plans to implement it. That was when he entered the new world in early 2018 by starting Bolani Restaurant; now one of the most famous restaurants in Kabul.
Although it is difficult for a new entrepreneur to invest in a business idea, albeit a small but unprecedented one, he has begun to believe and rely on his abilities. He believes that if you do not take risks, you will never see a change in your life. “I didn’t have the tools to start a small business at the time, but I would choose the designs I would even choose the name and the logo,” he says. In my opinion, opportunities are created, they do not come to you by incidents.”
However, of being an experienced political program presenter/journalist in Afghanistan’s most popular TV channels, including Khurshid TV; Mr. Nazari thinks entrepreneurship is one of the most enjoyable things he has ever experienced. Mr.Nazar believes there are great opportunities awaiting those interested in small businesses and entrepreneurship, but passion and consistency are required to become successful and implement your ideas.
Alongside managing Bolani restaurant, he now provides food services to a number of foreign organizations. Besides these, in order to be in touch with the world of journalism, he teaches journalism at a number of universities and private learning centers.
