'Rise High Bangladesh' at BRAC University
The export idea contest "Rise High Bangladesh" today reached the capital's BRAC University campus on the 12th day of its ongoing campaigning schedule.
A huge number of students participated in the daylong event starting at 10:00am beside the university cafeteria.
The programme venue was decorated with different banners and posters containing details of the contest.
The puzzle solving contest attracted a large crowd of students who were required to pick a clue card with information on a country, and they had to guess the country. Successful participants were given prizes.
Despite regular classes and examinations, a great number of students approached the venue where the event's volunteers explained to them the objectives, incentives and rules of participation.
A participant, Nayan Ahmed, of economics department, said "I liked this contest and I may come up with ideas of RMG products."
Celebrated cricketer Tamim Iqbal was also present at the event, among others.
"This Rise High Bangladesh is a very good initiative to motivate youths in generating export ideas, which could contribute to the economy of our country," said the cricketer.
"I am happy to attend the event with the youths as they are full of exuberance …" he added.
The contest started on August 10 and will continue till September 10. Students can register online and submit their export ideas.
