New eyeopeners – Bangladesh and Myanmar
Sweden on the Go’s digital networking meeting on October 16, focused on Bangladesh and Myanmar. Although the two countries are worlds apart when it comes to history, culture and religion, they have a few areas which unite. Both countries offer eyeopeners for exploring new business opportunities. Both countries were prior to Covid-19, seeing promising economic growth and pro-business reform. The countries are both, albeit from different levels, prioritizing industrial diversification and broad based growth. Strategically they serve as gateways to the ASEAN markets.

He has a long background from representing Swedish businessin the region and now runs his international consultancy with offices in Dhaka and Stockholm. The consultancy focuses on business development between the Nordics and Bangladesh.
