While inaugurating the Startup Day Dr. Md. Sabur Khan said, “Our young stars face the problem of not maintaining the proper process flow required for developing a world-class unicorn or establishing a million or billion dollar company lack of not using the right architect, data base and security compliance.” As a result, our young stars sometimes fall flat on their faces.

 

Our initiative is to overcome that situation. Because to make a business sustainable one has to constantly change the innovation track which many of us entrepreneurs don’t know. That is why we have arranged hands-on training by bringing internationally renowned experts from different countries to train new startups. Bangladesh did not have this kind of hands-on training yet before. Amazon Web Services is directly supporting this. Here 150 startups will learn hands-on and hopes at least 30 of them will get 10,000 USD credit facility from AWS.

This full-day event aimed to provide participants with hands-on workshops, insights on creating the next generation of unicorn startups, and opportunities to learn about AWS career programs through various sessions conducted by internationally and locally recognized professionals/trainers from Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The most interesting aspect of this event was more than 10 internationally recognized speakers and trainers from home and abroad conducted hands-on workshops. Also, all the participants presented a presentation based on Hands on Workshop, from which the winners were declared awards based on the verdict of the judges. Moreover, Bangladesh Venture Capital Ltd will finance the successful projects of startups from here in the future.
