The discussion was moderated by Md. Abu Taher, Executive Director of BCCCI, facilitating an exchange between the two business communities on investment opportunities, market access and potential areas for cooperation.
In his welcome remarks, Khorshed Alam highlighted the longstanding Bangladesh-China economic relationship and the need to deepen two-way trade, said the trade body on Tuesday.
