What is the current state of the electronics and hi-tech industry in Bangladesh? What potential for growth do you see for the industry?

The electronics and hi-tech industry in Bangladesh has witnessed significant growth and development in recent years. The government's focus on promoting the digital economy and creating a favourable business environment has contributed to the industry's expansion. Local manufacturers have made strides in producing quality electronics products, reducing dependency on imports. 

With the increasing adoption of technology and digitalisation, the demand for electronics and hi-tech products is expected to grow further. Bangladesh has a young and tech-savvy population, which presents immense potential for the industry's future growth. As the industry continues to evolve, we foresee greater investment, technological advancements, and increased exports, positioning Bangladesh as a competitive player in the global electronics market.
