The 20th edition of Bangladesh Business Awards, an initiative of DHL Express and The Daily Star, will take place tomorrow.

The global logistics provider and Bangladesh's most widely circulated English newspaper have been honouring the best in the business community with awards every year since 2000.

The theme of this year's Bangladesh Business Awards is "Bridge to prosperity, connecting beyond borders".

Planning Minister MA Mannan is scheduled to attend the event as the chief guest at the Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden in the capital.

DHL Express and The Daily Star introduced the awards to recognise the achievements and positive contributions of business organisations and individuals who have not only grown but contributed to the economic development of the country.

It is now considered as one of the most prestigious events in business circles.
