Jun. 2025Inspiring a New Generation The Nicholas Pogose Foundation is dedicated to inspiring young people in Bangladesh by creating & delivering meaningful projects in education, technology and sports. About the Nicholas Pogose Foundation The Nicholas Pogose Foundation is rooted in a remarkable story that began more than 250 years ago in what is now Bangladesh. This is not just the story of a man—it is the story of a movement. A movement that once sparked a revolution in education, now being rekindled to uplift and inspire a new generation of young people across Bangladesh. A Legacy Reignited Today, the Nicholas Pogose Foundation seeks to honour this incredible heritage by supporting young people across Bangladesh—offering inspiration within Education, Technology, and Sport. We believe that if a single man could help to transform Dhaka’s education landscape in the 1800s, then together—with our global community—we can ignite an even greater movement today. WHY?
