Bangladesh will host a four-day Investment Summit from 7–10 April at Hotel InterContinental Dhaka, aiming to attract foreign investment in five key sectors: renewable energy, digital economy, textiles & apparel, healthcare & pharma, and agro-processing.
The summit is co-organized by the Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA) and the Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA). Despite the recent 37% US tariff on Bangladeshi goods, organizers say it will not have an immediate impact on the summit. However, investors will closely watch how Bangladesh responds.
The government is working on a reduced tariff structure and plans to develop a policy guideline before the main event on 9 April. Discussions are ongoing with the private sector, government agencies, and the US Embassy to find a sustainable solution.
Over 2,300 participants from 50 countries, including more than 550 foreign investors, have already registered. The event is expected to highlight Bangladesh’s investment potential and its economic reforms aimed at building sustainable investment pipelines.
