 Most people know Mongolia for its unique nomadic history, but the quality of Mongolian startups might soon make the country famous for its innovation as well. Mongolia’s startup ecosystem is still developing, but it has the potential to greatly impact and transform the local economy. A surge in investment, human capital, and digital connectivity creates an opportunity for this East Asian country to fortify its gains from agriculture and mining and take advantage of the demand for IT to create a startup ecosystem in its capital city, Ulaanbaatar. ==read-more==
 While Mongolia started its digital reforms before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the process was accelerated during the crisis. As a result, the country has now developed the platform [E-Mongolia](https://e-mongolia.mn/home), following Estonia’s model of e-governance. Such reforms are aimed at reducing bureaucracy, improving transparency, and offering faster services, and could also prove beneficial for the startup scene. 
 The majority of the population lives in the capital city, Ulaanbaatar, and it is home to several startup support organizations contributing to the development of the city's startup ecosystem. One of those organizations is the [Business Innovation Agency of Ulaanbaatar Municipality](https://bida.ub.gov.mn/) that aims to promote the development of business and innovation through implementing projects and programs. 
 Another stakeholder, [Startup Mongolia](https://startupmongolia.org/?fbclid=IwAR1Gq_NcJsi3_ceJgsFv-s_ZyuK8RE_DKLqdIn-DoJyMYqDCIggefi979Fw), is an NGO that supports the development of the Mongolian ecosystem by offering resources and networking opportunities to the startup scene. It is also encouraging to see events such as Startup Week Ulaanbaatar take place, which is a sign that the ecosystem is maturing. The nation is also activating its young talent with initiatives such as the [Youth Business Mongolia](https://www.youthbusiness.org/member/development-solutions-mongolia#:~:text=About%20Youth%20Business%20Mongolia&text=The%20aim%20of%20the%20programme,and%20run%20a%20successful%20business.) program. 
 The Mongolian startup ecosystem still faces a number of challenges in terms of physical infrastructure and access to finance. Regardless, the Mongolian government is actively supporting the growth of entrepreneurship, and prioritizes innovation as a substantial engine of growth for the country.
