Pushpa Presents: Bangladesh, But Brooklyn.
🇧🇩 Bangladesh, But Brooklyn
Pushpa is coming to New York.
What happens when one of the world's largest Bangladeshi diasporas comes together & makes sh*t happen?
Join us for an afternoon of deshi lo-fi, creative Bangladeshi bites, backyard vibes, and conversations about what it means to be part of one of the largest Bangladeshi diasporas in the world.
What to expect:
🎧 Bangladeshi musician spinning a deshi lo-fi DJ set @iftimusic
🍽️ Creative Bangladeshi bites from food writer & cook, homegrown in Chittagong, @anikahshaokat. Think mushroom kala bhuna, deviled egg bhorta, and of course... plenty of cha. ☕
📸 Bangladeshi photographer capturing all the vibes @mistamoni & photobooth from @srithibooth
🎁 Raffles from Bangladeshi-owned micro-brands @gorurghash.us @royalbengalmotorclub @es.trq @srithibooth @padmapastry.co
🌱 An intro to the Pushpa Fund and how we're tapping into NYC — home to the second-largest Bangladeshi diaspora in the world — to help build what's next for Bangladesh
What's Pushpa?
Pushpa is a community-powered fund connecting the global Bangladeshi diaspora with entrepreneurs and high-impact projects in Bangladesh. Members contribute monthly, vote on where funds go, and collectively invest in the country's future.

No networking badges. No awkward icebreakers. No fundraising gala.
Just good people, backyard vibes, and one big question:
We're really good at celebrating where we came from. What if we got just as serious about where Bangladesh is going?
With Love,
The Pushpa People 🇧🇩🗽
