Dhaka: The capital is set to host its first-ever Saturday market dedicated to women's creativity and entrepreneurship tomorrow, with the launch of WOW Market that stands for Women of Worth and Wonder, in Gulshan. The unique day-long event, running from 10:30 am to 9:30 pm, hosted by Crown Plaza hotel at its 25th-floor ballroom, will bring together women artisans and young entrepreneurs showcasing handcrafted creations, innovative products, and passion-driven ventures, said a press release here.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, the organisers emphasized that the initiative goes beyond the concept of a conventional marketplace. It is intended to be a celebration of women's empowerment, providing a platform to support local livelihoods, nurture talent, and strengthen communities.
In alignment with IHG Hotels and Resorts' global Giving for Good Month campaign, the WOW Market also carries a significant message of compassion and social impact. Each purchase at the event will directly contribute to uplifting women artisans and entrepreneurs, while inspiring visitors to engage in fostering inclusive growth.
"Every creation carries a story of resilience, artistry, and aspiration," organisers noted, calling the market a landmark event in Dhaka's cultural calendar.
