Anis Khan, born on August 5, 1958, in a small village in Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh, comes from a middle-class family. His early life was marked by significant historical events. As a high school student, the war for independence between Pakistan and Bangladesh erupted on March 25, 1971. Despite his young age, Anis contributed to the efforts of the freedom fighters striving for Bangladesh’s independence. After nine months of intense conflict, Bangladesh achieved its independence.
Upon completing high school, various circumstances compelled Anis to leave his homeland for his safety and security. His journey took him to several countries before he ultimately settled in Switzerland, a place he considers his “Swiss dream.” In Switzerland, Anis worked in various sectors, underwent extensive training, and became an international aviation security consultant. His expertise led him to collaborate with numerous airlines, including American Airlines, United Airlines, Swiss Air, and Delta Airlines, as well as various airports worldwide, under the supervision of Homeland Security.

In 2005, he founded Intrapass, where he currently serves as the CEO and managing partner. Additionally, he established the World Business Logistics Network Switzerland and is the founder and president of the Global Swiss Business Hub (GSBH).
Beyond his professional achievements, Anis Khan is dedicated to philanthropy. He supports children’s education in Bangladesh through a school that serves hundreds of children. His vision includes aiding small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in their growth within the global market and promoting children’s education and welfare worldwide.
Anis Khan is highly respected in the logistics industry. His aspirations extend to supporting innovation, climate change initiatives, sustainability, environmental justice, and creating a better world for children everywhere. He is driven by the desire to help people and lives by his father’s three words of advice: respect, sacrifice and compromise.
