Swiss Mars Group (“SMG”), a popular
name now in the public and private sector development in Bangladesh, holds the
centerstage of the ever-expanding Mars Group in Bangladesh. All concerns of the
Group revolve around MI. It possesses a highly skilled multi-disciplinary team of
professionals and technical experts to provide world class advisory services to
a broad spectrum of public and private sector entities with special focus on
large infrastructure and public-private partnership (“PPP”) initiatives.
Experts and professionals working with MI have global exposures and experiences
in their respective fields.
In order to cater to the fast-increasing
development needs of the country, SMI brings in its global network of
connections and contacts that add a lot of values in large project development
in terms of sharing of global experiences, using funds, and imparting technical
knowhow. MI’s principals, affiliates, and accomplices spread over Asia, Europe,
and North America. It is the local representative of several globally reputed
companies such as Fael Luce of Italy and Icare Group of Switzerland. Mars is
also in close association with Switzerland based fund for large infrastructure
projects as well as Middle East based large project developers.
Swiss Mars Group, starting with trade and
manufacturing sectors for a long time, is now prioritizing large infrastructure
and PPP initiatives such as the independent power producers, communication
projects, seaports, economic zones, metro rail, flyovers etc. Sustainable
development is the most emphasized idea of MI. Therefore, at MI we give utmost
importance in the assessment of long-term sustainability of the projects we
support. We recommend our Projects to be green certified by accredited
institutions.
SMG’s vision is aligned with the development
goals of the Government of Bangladesh. Bangladesh is one of the fastest growing
countries in the world. As a result, it is offering an array of opportunities
for project developers, financiers, experts, logistic providers etc. from all
local as well as global pools. MI is helping build the bridge between local
enterprises and global players in achieving common development goals of the
country. We believe that the huge development requirement of the country could
not be satisfied with local resources alone. Moreover, the country has already
achieved the middle-income status and vying for becoming a developed nation by
2040. Achievement of such goals will require huge improvement in the country’s
physical and social infrastructure.
SMG is open to form alliance with any capable
and interested parties that desire to participate in the mammoth development
activities in Bangladesh. MG is providing consultancy and advisory services to
many private and public sector entities in the country. We believe that the
list of our valued clientele will only increase by the time. We have a vision
to build an impeccable reputation as a development organization not only in
Bangladesh but also the World as a whole.
