The Founder Institute– a Silicon Valley based early-stage startup accelerator and global launch network- launched its operation in Bangladesh in 2014 and started its first batch of Dhaka Chapter in early 2015 that helped launch five startups. Few of those startups such as SmartKompare, Styline, and Handymama, are doing pretty well.
The program just announced graduate startups from its latest batch, Fall 2015, last night. A graduation night was held at BASIS Auditorium on the 20th of March, Sunday with Shameem Ahsan, President of BASIS and General Partner at Fenox Venture capital honoring the event as chief guest.
