As Europe move towards Circular Economy and driven by EU Green Deal, consumers are increasingly sensitive towards goods with least Carbon footprint and are demanding newer kind of goods.
The transforming European landscape thus promises opportunities for Bangladeshi manufacturers to invest in "design thinking" and secure greater competitiveness and productivity, especially as Bangladesh emerges as a Middle-Income Country (MIC).
The event aims to facilitate match-making between some of the leading, innovative Bangladeshi manufacturers with interested Dutch entrepreneurs and designers, the release adds.
Bangladeshi participants will also visit the leading Dutch Design Academy in understanding the need and scope of "design" in manufacturing.
Bangladeshi companies – APEX Footwear, ACI, Nourish, Monno Ceramic, and Walton – will join the event.
