About Krishna

Where Science Meets Marketing Mastery

I'm Krishna Khanal, PhD — Assistant Professor of Marketing & Ethics at King's College, Nepal, bestselling author, and corporate marketing trainer with a global background spanning Europe, Asia, and South Asia.

My path is anything but conventional. From a BSc and MSc in Biotechnology to an MBA in International Business and a PhD in Management Studies, from labs in Singapore to boardrooms at BOSCH GmbH in Germany and AXA Insurance in France — each experience deepened my understanding of how people think, behave, and make decisions.

Marketing, to me, should be fun, creative, and deeply connected to human needs. My core interests include branding, consumer behaviour, and ethical marketing practices. I'm passionate about making marketing relatable, impactful, and grounded in values.
