Edotco Group Director and Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Mohamed Adlan Ahmad Tajudin has said Bangladesh is one of the key markets for the regional and integrated telecommunications infrastructure services company.

"We also recognise our talent in Bangladesh and have established a Centre for Design Excellence here, serving as an innovation research centre for our clients in the country and the rest of our footprint markets across the Group," Adlan said during a discussion with the Telecom and Technology Reporters' Network Bangladesh Thursday.

The edotco Group CEO arrived in Dhaka from Kuala Lumpur for his first official visit to Bangladesh earlier this week.

The core agenda of Adlan's visit was to get a first-hand perspective of the fastest-growing markets in Asia and to gain insight into how Bangladesh contributes to Asia's resilience, dynamism, and growth.

As part of his work visit to Dhaka, Adlan had meetings with the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission officials, telecom operators, edotco's clients, and other industry stakeholders.

Adlan was appointed as Group CEO of edotco Group in November 2020, with over 17 years of experience in the telecommunications field. Before his current role, he served as the chief financial officer and director of PT XL Axiata Tbk (Indonesia).

Over the years, edotco brought many unique and environment-friendly designs such as bamboo towers, carbon towers, low-cost structures, SPC towers, and hybrid solar wind towers to fulfil connectivity demands in Bangladesh. It has employed more than 400 people nationwide.
