Event Planning in Bangladesh

Event planning consultancy is brand-led live days: who walks where, what is on the LED, who speaks. Azizul Hoque Shiplu is not a caterer. Consultancy typically BDT 1,20,000–6,50,000. Production, venue and F&B at cost.

What a show-call actually covers

One run-of-show document, minute by minute: who is on stage, what is on the LED at that second, who has the microphone, and who makes the call if the schedule slips. Protocol events add a layer most brand launches don't need — seating order, who is introduced first, and a timeline that cannot slip because a head of state or an ambassador is on it. He builds and calls that document himself; he does not hand it to a junior on the day.

Live days he has run

• Ashok Leyland / IFAD Autos — the 10,000-unit production landmark event, run for close to 200 guests including senior management from Ashok Leyland India and IFAD Autos.
• Bangladesh Special Economic Zone — the nationally broadcast Grand Opening Ceremony (2022) and, two years later, venue branding and ceremonial production for the state visit of His Majesty the King of Bhutan (2024).
• Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant — the first concrete-pouring ceremony for Unit 2 (2018), a fixed-protocol national event with no room for the clock to slip.
• Astha Life Insurance — branch-opening and launch-day events built to carry a trust-led brand story to a sceptical audience in person, not just on screen.

What this is not

Not catering, not venue sourcing, not a wedding-style planner. Vendors, F&B and venue are booked and billed at cost, separately from the consultancy fee — he designs and calls the show, he doesn't mark up the chairs.
