This woman has inspired a platform of entrepreneurs in Bangladesh

Published 25 Feb,2021 via The Financial Express - There is always a little girl somewhere in every corner of the world in a conservative family, who-- despite all the obstacles thrown from all around-- nurtures big dreams. While some may succeed, most of the dreams get lost within the alleys of marriage and family. But this is the story of a woman who came holding a lightning torch for those women who have lost their individual identity in becoming a mother or a wife.

Nasima Aktar Nisha comes from a traditional conservative family. She completed her business graduation degree (BBA) from North South University. She also obtained her MBA from Southeast University. Growing up, she did not have much of a big dream. She wanted to be a housewife because it was unimaginable in her family for a woman to work outside. Her husband also wanted her to stay home. She fitted herself into the role others wanted for her. But even before she could complete her graduation, her father asked her to take his office due to his sickness. Eventually her husband Faisal A Sikder too got onboard and encouraged Nasima to start working. That was her first step into the business world.

She founded Reverie Corporation Limited in 2011 that has come a long way in the IT industry in Bangladesh. They first started serving both local and global end users by developing games and apps on both the Android and iOS platform. The company is now a member of BASIS and e-CAB. Her app 'How to wear a saree' became famous in the South Asia region. It became one of the top 100 apps in India.
