About School of Entrepreneurship Development (SED)

Imagine a Bangladesh brimming with entrepreneurial spirit, where passionate individuals turn their dreams into thriving businesses, creating jobs, prosperity, and a brighter future for all. This is the vision that drives SED, the School of Entrepreneurship Development, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to empowering aspiring and existing entrepreneurs like you.

Founded in 2018, SED emerged from a recognition of the critical challenge facing Bangladesh: widespread unemployment amid a rising tide of graduates. Traditional job markets couldn’t keep up, leaving talented individuals unfulfilled and frustrated. SED stepped in with a bold vision: to cultivate a vibrant ecosystem of entrepreneurship, equipping people with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to become the architects of their own success and catalysts for national economic growth.

First time in the world, this impactful SED Ecosystem has been invented and designed by a Global Networking Architect Mahbub Rahman who graduated with a BBA and MBA in Marketing from Dhaka University.
