My name is Osama Adnan. I am currently pursuing an MBA with a specialization in Sustainable Business at INCEIF University, an AACSB-accredited business school in Malaysia, under the prestigious President’s Scholarship.
Academic and Research Work
I completed my bachelor’s degree in Business from Manarat International University, Bangladesh, with a CGPA of 3.78 out of 4.00. During my undergraduate years, I worked on a research paper titled “Impact of COVID-19 on the Use of Fintech in Bangladesh: Evidence from Urban Consumers,” which I initially presented at the 16th South Asian Management Forum and later published in the International Journal of Research and Innovation in Social Science (IJRISS), a peer-reviewed journal. During this time I also actively participated in numerous national-level business case competitions, achieving significant recognition.
Later, I moved to Malaysia to pursue my MBA. Along this journey, I have been involved in several research projects, including:
- “Leveraging Waqf Land for Sustainable Agricultural Development: A Model for Agro-Based SMEs in Bangladesh,” which I presented at the 1st International Conference on Islamic Finance in Bangladesh (2025).
- A policy research project titled “Exploring Governance Challenges: Recommendations & Capacity Development Readiness in Malaysian Charities,” where I worked as an analyst in collaboration with the International Governance and Sustainability Centre.
- “Examining Energy Transition Strategies for a Sustainable Future: A Case Study of Energy Companies in Malaysia,” which is currently under review for publication in a Scopus-indexed journal.
- “The Effectiveness of the Social Pressure Model in Climate-Affected Areas of Southern Bangladesh: Lessons for Islamic Microfinance Institutions,” which is an ongoing project.
Work experience
I joined FIGLAB, a software development agency, as a Product Manager. In this role, I successfully designed, managed, and delivered over 10 projects, including an Inventory Management System and a Project Management System for one of the largest NGOs in the world.
Freelancing
I have been working as a freelancer for over eight years, empowering 30+ clients across 10 countries with 100+ successful projects. My skillset includes a wide range of design expertise, such as graphic design, and UI/UX design. Additionally, I am proficient in WordPress and Elementor for website development, as well as Framer and Webflow. I also have expertise in video editing.

Leadership & social work
During my undergraduate years, I was the President of the Business Club, where I started as a general member and gradually took on leadership responsibilities. During my tenure, I organized the university’s first intra-university business case-solving competition focused on social media marketing, along with various other events and collaborations with local and multinational companies.
In 2015, I founded Raiyan, a socio-religious platform on social media, and in 2018, I launched another platform, Duhaa, with a different vision. Collectively, these initiatives have successfully served over 40,000 people.
