UNB, Dhaka :
The 6th annual Social Business Day will be held in the city on May 28 with the theme of ‘Turning Unemployment into Entrepreneurship’.
Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Prof Muhammad Yunus will host the event at Bangabandhu International Conference Centre continuing on last year’s discussion to look at ways that social business can tackle youth unemployment.
“Social Business Day 2015 is an opportunity for you to explore the concept of social business and your role in this global movement alongside leading experts in the field,” according to the organisers.
It is normally held on June 28 every year but this
year June will be a fasting month because of Ramadan and the event has been shifted to May 28.
It will help collaborate on developing sustainable solutions to real world problems with international and local actors, corporate and social leaders, NGOs, students, and innovators.
The daylong event which was been attended by over 1,200 participants from 30 countries last year in the past will allow the participants to meet social business entrepreneurs face to face and discuss their business models, achievements, and challenges.
This year, the organizers are looking forward to making it bigger and better with an expected audience of 2,000 participants from home and abroad.
The event will feature a series of plenary sessions and interactive workshops that are tailored to offer expert knowledge about specific aspects of social business as a way of tackling society’s most pressing problems.
