Jabbar highlighted the necessity of innovation saying, “There was a time when our society didn’t feel the need for a new invention for hundreds of years but now we cannot think of the future without innovating ideas.”
He also mentioned that the global economic situation has seen a major change over the past decade.
“The rate of innovation in European countries has slowed because they don’t have youth population but we (Bangladesh) do,” said the minister.
He expressed satisfaction with the projects from BTRC, BTCL, Post Department, Teletalk and other brands in the ‘Innovation Showcasing-2019’.
