"The announcement of Online Sohopathi as one of the finalist projects in the Tiger Challenge gave us the affirmation we needed to cement our belief in our project's potential," said Shadman Majid, chairman and CEO of Mainframe Labs Ltd.
The Tiger Challenge is an initiative by the Tiger IT Foundation and the MIT Solve.
Launched in 2019, the collaboration was a first for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), as it had never before merged its flagship initiative MIT Solve with any others.
This unique partnership was born out of the aim to support and invest in tech initiatives that make education, healthcare and community development services accessible to all.
It is also the goal of this partnership to set up a platform where contextualised, marketable innovations are bred, and which can promote foreign investments and create quality employment opportunities in Bangladesh.
