“Entrepreneurs are Bangladesh’s economics future strength, To create new entrepreneurs is Seedstars vision and we want to promote them both locally and internationally using this competition.” explains Shameem Ahsan, President, BASIS.

Seedstars World focus on three major tracks FinTech, TravelTech and StarTech. Each of these Investment Tracks will have a USD 500K equity prize for its winner, with the association of one of the biggest players in the industries as an added bonus. Various other prizes can be won outside the tracks such as the Space Prize, a USD 50k grant awarded by Inmarsat and AP-Swiss. All regional winners of the local events will be invited back to Switzerland to pitch at the final event in 2016 in Switzerland.
