ResearchHUB founder won Best Paper Award on IAME2016 conference

IAME is the largest and most prestigious conference for the maritime researchers. At IAME2016, there were more than 200 research articles authored by about 500 top scholars from all over the world.  I was very happy when we found the dramatic peaks and bumps in some of the fitted values of SCFI in our model were due to the GRIs and we could forecast the rest quite accurately. And last but not the least, I am very happy about all the supports I received from Dr. Schramm, and all the efforts he put into the paper. However, to the best of  knowledge, Dr. Schramm was always hopeful about this paper.

I completed my BBA form Eastern University, Bangladesh in 2011. Before joining as a PhD Research Fellow at the University of Agder, he pursued his M.Sc in Supply Chian Management at Vienna University of School and Business. In the upcoming week, he is also starting with the Oxford Leadership Program on Global Transport Challenges at the University of Oxford.

To add a bit of history, my father worked a very long period of time as one of the Directors of Chittagong Port Authority, Bangladesh. Following that, I grew up in the port area, but never really realized that I am getting into the same business. I believe, there’s a lot more to do, a long way to go.
