Barrister Rabiul Islam Tarafder

Founder & Chairman

Barrister Rabiul Islam Tarafder (BRIT Robin), A Visionary Architect of Modern Lobbying in Bangladesh.

At the heart of Lobbying and the Law (Bangladesh) company limited is the vision of Barrister Rabiul Islam Tarafder, the company's Founder and Chairman, a distinguished legal mind and forward-looking reformist.

Barrister Tarafder recognized that Bangladesh, as an emerging economy, required a structured and legitimate lobbying framework to interface effectively with both domestic institutions and international partners. Through his leadership, he has embarked on a mission to institutionalize the art of influence, transforming it from an informal and often misunderstood practice into a regulated, respected, and strategically aligned profession.

Where many viewed lobbying as a sensitive or unconventional subject within official corridors, he envisioned it as a necessary mechanism for policy modernization, investment facilitation, and national development. His vision is to align Bangladesh's governance and business environment with international standards of public affairs, advocacy, and stakeholder engagement, ensuring that transparency, professionalism, and national interest remain at the core of every dialogue.

Under his guidance, the company has positioned itself as a trailblazer in ethical lobbying, a bridge between government and commerce, and a partner in Bangladesh's transformative path toward modernizing its institutions and bolstering global competitiveness through strategic reforms, innovative policies, and enhanced international partnerships.
