The Canada-Bangladesh Joint Working Group will promote the Bangladesh brand in Canada to boost bilateral trade and investment. Nominated members of the committee discussed the issue at a virtual meeting recently. Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI) president Mohammad Jashim Uddin said FBCCI would soon submit a sector-wise report on the blue economy, plastics and tourism to the working committee.

Jashim Uddin called for inclusion of the blue economy and plastics as potential sectors for collaboration.

The previous meeting of the group identified tourism, information and communication technology, agriculture, agri-food, education, pharmaceuticals and renewable energy as potential sectors for collaboration. The next meeting of the committee is scheduled to be held on February 7.

FBCCI director Syed Almas Kabir will submit a report on skills development and information technology at the next meeting.

The two sides agreed to strengthen inter-communication between industry associations to remove trade barriers and increase import-export between two countries, according to Bangla media reports.
