years of industry experience.

I had the chance to work with some brightest

developers of Bangladesh.

I recruited over than 75 developers in several

companies.

I was involved with establishing Widespace in

Bangladesh and i have established 5 more

companies in Bangladesh.

I have some idea about the Bangladesh IT industry.
