About the BBBF

The Bangladesh Better Business Forum (BBBF), the first-ever public-private business forum in Bangladesh, began its journey in 2007 with the aim of improving the business environment in Bangladesh through interactions between the business community and government officials.

BBBF aims to create conditions conducive to the business environment that has been confronted with some critical issues in recent years. The forum looks into several dimensions of improving the business climate in Bangladesh. These consist of designing an action plan on regulatory reforms relating to both investments, developing skills of potential labour force, ensuring access to finance for businesses, starting up businesses and much more.    More...
