Gap between education and market needs

Lack of mentorship and leadership opportunities

Need Skills Training

"I dreamt of becoming a software developer, but didn't know where to start. Through Next11's training program, I now work at a tech company and support my family. The opportunities are here in Bangladesh - we just need the right guidance and skills."
— Rashida, 22, Dhaka
