State Minister for Foreign Affairs Md. Shahriar Alam on Sunday said the implications of intellectual property (IP) become increasingly significant as Bangladesh progresses towards its goal of LDC graduation.
“By prioritizing the protection, utilization, and management of IP assets, Bangladesh can secure a prosperous future built on knowledge, creativity, and the power of innovation,” he said, adding that protecting intellectual property rights is crucial for fostering innovation, reports UNB.

To realize the dream of Bangabandhu’s Sonar Bangla and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s Smart developed country, the state minister said, they must equip their people with skills and knowledge.
