Salim Chowdhury, the founder of Treetop Cloud and chairman of Greenspot Fashion Limited, has been re-elected as a member of the Standing Committee of the Dhaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DCCI) for the year 2025. As an IT entrepreneur and international business leader, Chowdhury has made significant contributions to the development of Bangladesh’s Information Technology (IT) sector.

On February 11, 2025, the first meeting of the DCCI’s Digital Economy and Information Technology (DEIT) Committee took place. The meeting focused on a detailed discussion of the potential and challenges of blockchain technology. During the session, Salim Chowdhury emphasized the importance of leveraging blockchain technology for Bangladesh’s economic and technological advancement.

However, he highlighted several challenges for successful implementation, including the lack of regulatory frameworks, security risks, and a shortage of skilled workforce.
