Inspired by the international photographer Abul Fazal, thirty-seven Bangladeshi young entrepreneurs pooled their resources to set up a modern photo lab in New York. Fazal, who serves as the CEO, said the group hopes to open a branch in Dhaka, as well.

Photo-labs are a totally different kind of business among the Bangladeshi people living in America. Ambassador Chowdhury said that the establishment would be a landmark for Bangladeshis in America.

This laboratory, named Conservation Prolab is considered to be the third-largest of the top ten photo laboratories in New York. All of the lab machinery was imported from Australia, Germany and Denmark.
