Story of Business Inspection

With the spark of digitization and globalization, the information has been more accessible and available than ever all around the world. But unfortunately, things are not the same for Bangladesh. Though Bangladesh’s mainstream media has been modernized a lot, still there is a noticeable shortage of information flow in several sectors, and limited accessibility of mass people to research results, information, sometimes even to current news. Even if the information is there, in most cases, it is presented in an non-understandable manner. Having concerns in this regard, we, a bunch of friends, decided to come up with a platform where this information will be presented in a way, so that they can be properly understandable and accessible, based on a niche, at which we were always best at. It's 'Business’! We were always business junkies since our academic life and always had a passion to know real business cases, analysis, research, news, and strategies, along with current and past economic condition, both in Bangladesh and across the border. During our undergrads, we had to struggle a lot to quench our thirst for knowing the real business and economy-related information, especially which are based on Bangladesh. However, now we have become entrepreneurs and currently involved in several industries, having a great experience of current business, industry, and economy, both in Bangladesh and international markets. We haven’t forgotten our struggles when we had to face hard times while getting business-related info. So, since we have managed to get our hands on ample source of business information through our work experience, we want to share them with others, but not in a typical way, rather in attractive and structured content forms. ‘Business Inspection’ will not be the platform to share our analysis and information only. We also want our audience to participate, share any business-related information with us. Leave any information to us, we will let everyone know!
