Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain has emphasised the interim government's commitment to creating a business-friendly environment and urged Non-Resident Bangladeshis to leverage their expertise and networks to invest in Bangladesh's key sectors.

"By partnering with the government and local enterprises, NRBs can unlock untapped opportunities while gaining a foothold in one of the fastest-growing economies in the world," Hossain said while speaking at the "NRB Conclave" at Foreign Service Academy.

Members of the Bangladesh Brand Forum and Non- Resident Bangladeshis were present at the event under the theme "Transforming Bangladesh through Knowledge Remittance."

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in collaboration with Bangladesh Brand Forum and other partners, is committed to transforming Bangladesh into a nation that thrives on knowledge, innovation, and global partnerships, said the Adviser.

"Together, we can achieve the vision of a prosperous, inclusive, and respected Bangladesh. Let us embrace this opportunity with determination and unity. The world is watching, and the future is calling," the adviser added.

Hossain said the NRBs with expertise in technology can facilitate the transfer of knowledge and skills; collaborate with local startups and businesses to foster a culture of innovation; advocate for the establishment of Tech Incubators and R&D Centers that drive homegrown solutions.

He said the story of Bangladesh is one of resilience, innovation, and boundless potential. "Yet, the global perception of our nation often falls short of this reality."

The Adviser said the interim government, unfortunately, has been confronted with a misinformation and disinformation campaign in a part of the media in the region based mostly on falsehood.

"We have to develop our narrative based on the truth. NRBs, as credible and influential ambassadors, can play a pivotal role in reshaping this narrative," Hossain said.
