Kamrul Hasan Emon
CEO, Consultant, and Travel Coordinator in Dhaka, Bangladesh
Hello, I’m Kamrul Hasan Emon
Founder & CEO at BackpackWala
Co-founder at Klimax Technologies
Entrepreneur | Tourism & Hospitality | Digital Strategist
I am a business-driven entrepreneur with hands-on experience across tourism, hospitality, and digital marketing — building and scaling ventures since the early days of F-commerce in Bangladesh.
My journey began with Civvy Street, an online fashion brand with physical outlets, where I was among the early adopters of Facebook Commerce in the country. I later founded Klimax Technologies, a 360° digital marketing and media agency, working with startups and established brands across both local and international markets.
Since 2017, my primary focus has been the tourism industry. I am the founder of Backpackwala, a full-service travel agency providing end-to-end travel solutions, including domestic and international tour packages, corporate travel, visa processing, and destination management.
Beyond travel services, I have actively invested in and developed tourism experiences — including a houseboat operation in Tanguar Haor, a restaurant & resort in Sajek Valley, and resort ventures in emerging destinations.
I am currently leading the development of Pina Vista – Tea & Hill Resort, an 8.2-acre premium eco-resort project in Sreemangal, designed to deliver immersive, high-quality hospitality experiences rooted in nature.
Alongside my business ventures, I am actively involved with the E-Tourism Association of Bangladesh (ETAB), where I serve as Organizing Secretary (2025–Present). I have been part of the organization since its early stage, previously contributing as Information Technology Secretary — working to build a more connected, youth-driven, and digitally empowered tourism ecosystem.
My work has also been recognized through industry accolades, including the “Best Young Entrepreneur” award by DIU Career Development Center (CDC) and the National ICT Award 2017 by BASIS.
I am deeply passionate about building scalable tourism experiences, integrating digital innovation, and contributing to the long-term growth of the travel and hospitality industry.
Alongside building and scaling ventures, I’m open to meaningful global collaborations and opportunities where I can contribute my hands-on experience in tourism operations, hospitality, and destination development.
