The newly announced dream on December 12, 2022 – Smart Bangladesh – will also be a reality on December 16, 2041. So, officially, we are now in the era of Smart Bangladesh.

what does this term mean?
A “smart nation” is defined as “harnessing emerging technologies, networks, and data to create tech-enabled solutions that contribute to nation-building.”
Yes!
The big picture answer is that Smart Bangladesh 2041 will be defined by a number of characteristics. These are:

1. High-income: GDP per capita of at least $12,500;
2. Poverty-free: 0% extreme poverty and under 3% poverty
3. Macroeconomically stable: Low inflation (4-5%), low deficits (5% of GDP), increased investment (40% of GDP), and increased tax revenue (20% of GDP)
4. High human development: 100% high-school education including digital literacy, and 100% health financing for everyone while making the best use of our demographic dividend
5. Sustainable urbanization: 80% urban nation with 100% electrification, majority from renewable sources
6. Service at fingertips: 100% public services paperless and cashless, and at the fingertips of 100% citizens in the way they desire

Most importantly, Smart Bangladesh is all about establishing an equitable nation—equal rights, equal opportunities, with no marginalized groups.
