Biban Forum 2025 discussed topics and ideas related to entrepreneurship, e-commerce, franchising, investment opportunities, startups, and innovation. It also offered workshops, courses, consultation sessions, mentoring, and specialized programs to boost business efficiency and enhance the impact of enterprises on the national economy.
