Prominent economist and former governor of Bangladesh Bank, Dr. Atiur Rahman was the Chief Guest of the event where Founder & CEO of Textile Today, Tareq Amin spoke at the program as a resource person.
The speakers at the program engaged with future entrepreneurs to inspire them to work in the social entrepreneurship arena. An “Elevator Pitch Challenge” was arranged to encourage the audience to engage more.
The sessions had been arranged particularly for the youth society to let them have a clear understanding of the basic requirements of entrepreneurship, the strategies to follow while starting own venture, the tactics to market a new product/service in the market and the hurdles an entrepreneur faces in his/her path of success. “Engaging youth in entrepreneurship and make them aware about the advantages and solutions of obstacles of self- employment”- was the theme of the event.
Nowadays, everybody thrives to be established without putting the time or the effort that is required. However, you must remember this: no pursuit can be successful without hard work and persistence.
