The Legacy of Anup Kaphle at Rest of World
Anup Kaphle, who has served as the editor-in-chief of Rest of World since its inception six years ago, is stepping down from his role by the end of April 2026. Under Kaphle's leadership, the publication has made significant strides in covering technology from an international perspective, focusing on regions often overlooked in mainstream media narratives.
Intrepid Journalism in the Face of Adversity
Established during the Covid-19 pandemic, Rest of World aimed to shed light on how technology affects diverse populations worldwide. From Buenos Aires to Manila, Kaphle's team reported on crucial changes occurring in technology adoption. As he described, these stories were pivotal, demonstrating local adaptations and innovations that occur outside the confines of Silicon Valley's narrative.
Building a Global Community of Readers
One of Kaphle's proudest achievements is the creation of a credible international newsroom that connects with a global audience eager for serious journalism about technology's impact on their lives. This reader engagement was critical, as supported by the mission of Rest of World to tell the stories that matter, beyond Western-centric viewpoints. Kaphle emphasizes, “We proved there is a global audience hungry for serious journalism about technology beyond Silicon Valley.”
What Lies Ahead for Rest of World?
As Kaphle prepares to return to Nepal to be closer to family, he will transition into an advisory role, aiding in the search for his successor. His departure marks a significant moment for Rest of World, which has built a reputation for impactful storytelling. The publication is now poised to continue under new leadership, maintaining its mission to deliver essential narratives from around the globe.
Encouraging Continued Support for Global Journalism
Kaphle urges readers to remain invested in Rest of World's mission. With an ever-growing team equipped to explore the complex interplay between technology and society, the foundation Kaphle laid ensures that the essence of the publication will live on. As he states, “The best of Rest of World is still to come.”
