Bangladesh-Japan B2B event to be held on May 22

A business-to-business (B2B) match-making event will be held from May 22 to May 26 to expand business between Bangladesh and Japan.

Japan-Bangladesh Chamber of Commerce and Industries (JBCCI) and Haison International Limited will jointly organize the event in Japan, according to a statement.

United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) ITPO Tokyo will provide local support in arranging the events.

A total of 14 Bangladeshi companies in the areas of engineering, construction, logistics, shipping, SEZ management, ICT Park, real estate and hospitality, health and beauty, machinery, tools, automobiles, consultancy, banking, and finance will participate in the program for possible business collaboration with the Japanese companies.

Director, Bangladesh Investment Development Authority (BIDA) who will be deputed at UNIDO ITPO Tokyo as Bangladesh Delegate and Representative from JBCCI will join.

Director, BIDA will speak about the present investment opportunities in Bangladesh, and a Director from HAISON International will talk about the business practices of Bangladeshi companies vis-a-vis Japanese firms. In all the events, a Japanese investor who has already invested in Bangladesh will share his experiences in Bangladesh.

This program is the first interactive programme between Bangladeshi companies and Japanese firms after the visit of the Prime Minister of Bangladesh to Japan last month.

In all three events, companies of both countries will interact with each other and have face-to-face discussions for JV partnerships.

The Bangladesh Embassy in Japan will provide necessary support during the programme.

It is expected that many Japanese companies will participate in the events in the three locations.
