Dhaka Bureau: International education solutions provider, M Square Media (MSM) and its partner, Canada-based Capilano University (CapU), hosted an “Agent Networking Summit 2022” on Sunday, April 10, 2022 at the Sheraton, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Almost 175 education agents and stakeholders from around the capital and across the country participated in the event facilitated in person by Deepak Verma, Senior Manager (Canada), MSM which was virtually addressed by CapU’s Director for International, Dr. Chris Bottrill.
The summit in Dhaka is the final stop in a tour across India, Nepal and Bangladesh. It started in Chandigarh on April 6th and ended in Dhaka today. Part of MSM’s first series of in-person events after the pandemic, the summit tackled developments in the international education sector, opportunities for stakeholders to expand their network, and insights on how to increase international student recruitment in the region. This was a timely event as it has been reported that outward student mobility of Bangladesh students has grown over the past few years and this has been projected to grow in the coming years, as well. Tapping this promising market will be beneficial for all stakeholders.
