WorldLink establishes ‘WorldLink Museum’ to preserve Nepal’s internet history

Kathmandu:

WorldLink Communications Limited, Nepal’s largest internet service provider, has established the ‘WorldLink Museum’ to commemorate its historic milestones, technological contributions, and journey of growth. The museum, located at the company’s head office premises in Kusunti, Lalitpur, was officially inaugurated on Friday.

The inauguration ceremony was attended by WorldLink Chairman Dilip Agrawal, Co-founder and Executive Director Manoj Agrawal, and Chief Executive Officer Keshav Nepal.

The museum showcases a wide range of outdated yet historically significant equipment used throughout WorldLink’s technological journey — from the early days of email and dial-up internet to VSAT, wireless, cable internet, and FTTH services. These devices, though no longer in use, serve as crucial reminders of Nepal’s internet evolution.

According to the company, the museum has been established for educational, observational, and research purposes. It aims to serve as a shared learning space for students, researchers, historians, journalists, and technology enthusiasts to understand the progression of internet technology in Nepal and WorldLink’s pivotal role in it.

Company spokesperson Kiran Raj Gautam stated that the museum will be open to college students for visits every Friday from 10 AM to 4 PM.

WorldLink has played a key role in expanding digital access across Nepal—from remote villages to urban centers. The museum reflects this legacy and is envisioned as a tribute to the company’s decades-long contribution to Nepal’s technological development.
