The Bangladesh Hi-Tech Park Authority under the ICT division is going to organise a ‘Golden Jubilee Bangladesh Concert’ on May 6 at the Madison Square Garden in New York in the USA in support of cyber security for children
of low and middle-income countries.
A Concert for Bangladesh was also held at the same venue 50 years ago with the support of UNICEF where Ravi Shankar and
George Harrison performed.
The world-renowned band Scorpions and Chirkut of Bangladesh will perform at the
concert, State Minister for the ICT Division Zunaid Ahmed Palak said at a press conference on Saturday at the Bangladesh Computer Council in the city. The tickets will be available on ticketmaster.com from April 4.
Zunaid Ahmed further said that Bangladesh has become self-sufficient from a bottomless basket. He also informed that an investment of $500 million was made in the ICT sector in the last five years while 2500 startups are working in the country and the country is exporting software to 80 countries.
