This year, the magazine awarded the best organisations in 11 industries, including airlines, banking and finance, fintech, consultancy, education, education technology, the stock market, insurance, investment, leadership, and technology.
Tanvir A Mishuk has been selected for his exceptional contribution to financial inclusion through 'Nagad’, the release added.
“Winning awards is not my key objective. Yet, I am happy that the award acknowledged my work. I am even more delighted that the world-renowned organisation honoured my organisation as the most innovative digital financial services provider,” Tanvir A Mishuk said regarding the award.
'Nagad' has already garnered several significant awards from both domestic and international institutions.
