Bangladesh is the 8th largest country in the world by population and its capital city, Dhaka, is one of the world's most densely populated.

The Asia Tech Podcast was joined by an incredible founder from Bangladesh, Reyasat Chowdhury, a co-Founder and the CEO of Shuttle. Shuttle is a mass-transit startup based in Bangladesh that serves both B2B and B2C customers.

Some of the topics that Reyasat discussed:

  • His and his brother's entrepreneurial motivations
  • The importance and significance of population density in the building of Shuttle
  • Why Dhaka's bus companies were not interested and why Shuttle switched to minivans
  • Initially launching a service only for women
  • Moving into the B2B segment and building a subscription service
  • Creating other value-added services for Shuttle’s riders

Some other cool titles we considered for this episode:

  1. Someone Who Leads, Someone Who Conquers
  2. We Are Able to Use the Population Density to Our Advantage
  3. We See a Huge Opportunity on the Supply Side
  4. We Could Just Focus on Doing Something Impactful
  5. Last Year Was All About Growth
