Bangladesh StartUp Cup Women: Join the movement and know how to start, build, and scale your own business in a (so called) men’s world

[su_heading size="16" margin="10"]I don’t believe the projection that business is a manly job. It’s societal projection and here structure of business is organized around this very idea. But the scenario is changing fast and many women are entering into the world of entrepreneurship. Woman can do business and I’m the proof of that. In Multiplan Center there are 450 shops and I’m the only woman owner. ~Taslima Miji in an interview with Future Startup[/su_heading]
