Kawshar Ahmed is the CEO and founder of Joomshaper — a company that makes Joomla templates and extensions. Making his start from building small templates as part of his back in the day freelance gig, seeing Joomshaper now has a successful, multi-million dollar company is astounding. He, however, did not have a background in computer science but actually studied Textile engineering at Bangladesh University of Textiles. 

Kawshar Ahmed is a textbook example of a man who went through all kinds of conditions and faced every situation with grit and courage. Most importantly, even when his external conditions changed, he himself did not change his principles.

In this conversation with an absolute titan in his field, Kawshar Ahmed gives advice to smart students coming into the field, talks about finance and planning ahead, building a business, managing teams and being stress-free.
