“Empowering Bangladesh with clean energy today means a brighter, sustainable future for generations to come,” noted U.S. Ambassador Peter Haas at the EMK Center at the Indo-Pacific Business Forum (IPBF) in Dhaka.
The forum is the premier public-private U.S. government event to promote trade, investment, and economic cooperation between the United States and its partners throughout the Indo-Pacific region.
This year’s event will convene 500 leaders from across the region, including through a live stream for virtual participation and satellite events in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
The one-day event in Manila, Philippines, is co-hosted by the U.S. Trade and Development Agency and the Government of the Republic of the Philippines in partnership with the U.S. Department of State.
IPBF connects CEOs, project developers, government officials, and sources of financing for priority infrastructure in emerging Indo-Pacific economies.
Through speeches, breakout panels, and business matchmaking, participants will learn and share their insights on the latest trends, opportunities, and solutions to support infrastructure across all sectors. IPBF is also a chance to learn more about government tools and programs to support U.S. participation in the region’s priority projects.
The key themes and topics for 2024 are:
• Clean Energy
• Digital Transformation
• Supply Chain Resiliency
• Transportation Infrastructure
• Emerging Technologies
