The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the already vulnerable SMEs in Bangladesh. The economic distress has added further trouble to existing problems i.e. minimal access to finance, poor market linkage, absence of digital inclusion, and many more. To support them in this dire time, adequate policies and schemes by the Government, banking, public and private sector are imperative. But to do that, the stakeholders need to have better insight into the current impact.
To give a clear insight, LightCastle Partners and Sheba.xyz hosted a virtual session with industry experts and entrepreneurs.
The panelists for the session were
1. Md. Ashraful Alam, Project Country Coordinator, SHIFT, UNCDF

5. Nazeem Hasan Sattar, General Manager, SME Foundation
