Hello Team Riseup Labs, Thank you again for this excellent breakdown of ITES in Bangladesh. Hopefully, it will encourage our young generation to be interested in ITES more and more! But the biggest drawback in this total process that I think we’re missing is “Proper Education”. I can’t say that there is no place in Bangladesh that our students can go and learn from the specialist. Well, there are but not for every kind of ITES. Most likely Multimedia Content, Automation and Simulation. These are the section that we lack so much in terms of involving more people and let them learn. So, my wish is that if we had any place or some kind of source to learn all these in a way that we can also be productive and join the race and take our country to the first place.
I wish you all the best, team Riseup Labs. In this pandemic situation, you guys have taken your duty more seriously and working from home to bring us new and exciting content as well as giving the best service to make sure your clients are getting satisfied with the service your successfully providing for years.

First of all I would like to say wonderful blog! I had a quick
question that I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts
before writing. I have had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out there.
I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are
generally wasted simply just trying to figure
out how to begin. Any ideas or tips? Thank you!
