Dhaka Bank PLC (DBPLC), in partnership with Bangladesh Bank, has launched a month-long Entrepreneurship Development Programme (EDP) in Dhaka recently. The programme is part of the Skills for Industry Competitiveness and Innovation Program (SICIP), an initiative of the Ministry of Finance with support from the Asian Development Bank (ADB).
The training is designed to help aspiring and existing entrepreneurs-especially those outside the formal banking network-gain the skills, knowledge, and resources needed to grow their businesses, access finance, and create jobs, says a press release.
Dhaka Bank, selected to represent the Dhaka Region, is conducting the training through its institutional infrastructure. The course consists of 100 hours of sessions spread over one month, with 25 participants (selected by a 5-member Trainee Selection Committee).
The program will continue until September 15, 2025. This collaboration reflects a shared vision to strengthen entrepreneurs and promote inclusive economic growth in Bangladesh.
