Tech upgradation way forward for Bangladesh RMG to stay competitive: President of Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) Faruque Hassan

18 November 2021, Mumbai:

President of Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) Faruque Hassan recently said it is crucial for the country’s apparel industry to upgrade technology to remain competitive in the global market.

"Use of modern technologies, tools, and software are predominant when it comes to enhancing productivity and quality," he said.

He was addressing a webinar titled ‘AI & Robotics: Global Implication of Artificial Intelligence" in Dhaka. The webinar was organised as part of the World Congress on Information Technology, held between November 11 and 14 in the capital.

Hassan said technological innovations are imperative to make businesses sustainable as well, according to a BGMEA press release.

He said automation and technology up-gradation would not adversely affect employment as all the processes required to make a garment cannot be replaced by machines.
