Canada Bangladesh Chamber of Commerce and Industry is working to establish a platform for the country's young professionals to explore new business opportunities, said Masud Rahman, chief advisor of the chamber.
CanCham has felt that there should be a platform where young talents can exchange ideas and harvest opportunities, he said.
“I am happy to announce that CanCham will establish the platform by arranging networking events for the young professionals twice a year.”
The general objective of the platform is to bring together a group of young and energetic minds so that they can recognise, create and act upon business opportunities, he said.
He spoke at a programme on young entrepreneurship, organised by CanCham at the Canadian Club in the capital on Thursday.
CanCham recognises the contribution of two dynamic groups of Bangladesh to the economy, enthusiastic and risk taking entrepreneurs, and the top-notch young executives, who are driving the corporate world.
