The Bangladesh High Commission in London has said preparations are in full swing for the highly anticipated SME Fair, set to take place during Heritage Week in Tower Hamlets on 13-14 December, reports UNB.
This exciting event promises to be a fantastic showcase for talent, specifically highlighting the "incredible creativity and enterprise" of women entrepreneurs from Bangladesh, alongside the innovation of British-Bangladeshi women entrepreneurs.
The High Commission said this fair represents a golden opportunity for these SMEs to achieve significant international exposure, forge crucial new connections, and celebrate their vital contribution to the economy and shared culture.
Bangladesh High Commissioner to the UK, Abida Islam, held a "productive and in-depth discussion" with the UK Trade Envoy to Bangladesh, Baroness Rosy Winterton, and the British High Commissioner to Bangladesh, Sarah Cook, on 20 November.
The comprehensive dialogue covered a range of important topics of mutual interest, cementing efforts to deepen the vibrant partnership between the two nations.
The High Commission strongly encouraged everyone to mark these dates and come out to wholeheartedly support these dynamic, women-led businesses.
Beyond commerce, Heritage Week promises to be a truly memorable celebration of rich cultural traditions and a powerful way to strengthen both community and business ties.
