Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen on Wednesday urged Austrian businesspeople and investors to invest in Bangladesh taking advantage of the country's demographic dividend and attractive packages that are on offer for foreign direct investment (FDI).

He also highlighted Bangladesh's tremendous socio-economic developments, particularly during the last one decade in light of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's Vision 2021 and Vision 2041 that envisage the transformation of Bangladesh into Sonar Bangla (Golden Bengal) as dreamt by Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

Foreign Minister Dr Momen was speaking at a business luncheon that he hosted in honour of visiting Austrian Foreign Minister Dr Karin Kneissl and her delegation at the state guesthouse Padma.

The event was also attended by an Austrian business delegation comprising representatives of 13 leading companies from Austria and different Bangladesh public and private authorities responsible for investment and business promotion.

A few leading Bangladesh companies also took part in the event.
