2 Cents Podcast

Bangladesh's biggest business podcast, where two entrepreneurs interview the country's top business leaders, founders, and subject-matter experts.

The brief

A video podcast where two established Bangladeshi entrepreneurs, Nafees Salim and Sazzad Ahsan, interview a diverse slate of the country's business leaders. The conversations delve into specific industries like e-commerce (Chaldal) and international business (opportunities in Africa), as well as broader topics like personal productivity, educational systems, and religious philosophy. It serves as both a showcase for Bangladeshi business success and a content platform for the hosts' respective consulting and education companies.

As Bangladesh's self-proclaimed biggest business podcast, its primary distinction is its access to a wide array of high-profile Bangladeshi entrepreneurs and executives. Unlike solo-hosted shows, the two-host format with Nafees Salim and Sazzad Ahsan brings dual perspectives from their respective backgrounds in education and brand consulting.
