LiveSquare has worked with international cultural entities such as Rikskonsertene: Concerts Norway,[10] Goethe Institute Dhaka and EMK Center,[11] as well as with diplomatic missions such as the Norwegian Embassy[12] and the Embassy of Switzerland in Bangladesh. History2007-2010Initially started by Nafis Ahmed[13] while he was a student in his sophomore year at IBA-DU, LiveSquare became known with a series of lounge concerts under the banner of The Wireless Sessions[14] featuring bands such as Arbovirus, Shunno, Artcell, Cryptic Fate and Nemesis, in a time when the lounge music scene in Dhaka was in its infancy.[15] LiveSquare also organized and executed several one-off concerts during this time, including a fundraising concert for the victims of the hurricane Cyclone Sidr.[16] LiveSquare went on a year-long hiatus in 2010 following Ahmed's graduation and subsequent employment at a reputed marketing agency. 2011-2012LiveSquare organized several new events in 2011, such as the tribute concert Titans: Iron Maiden[17] and The ABC Generation[18][19] series. LiveSquare worked with international entities to bring in international artists to Bangladesh, such as Norwegian-Bangladeshi musician Kohinoor Nordberg, Swiss funk rock band Starch,[20] American guitarist Ken Stringfellow,[21] Norwegian pop rock outfit Casa Murilo,[22] multinational world music ensemble OK World[23] and various others, performing alongside Bangladeshi artists. The Wireless Sessions were also brought back during this time.[24] 2013-2016LiveSquare sent Bangladeshi artists such as Chirkutt,[25] Shironamhin[26][27] and Band Lalon[28] to perform at international festivals in Sri Lanka and Norway. In 2013, LiveSquare started the RockNation[29][30] series[31] of Rock/Metal concerts,[32] starring artists such as Warfaze, Aurthohin, Artcell and Arbovirus.[33][34][35] In late 2015, LiveSquare organized and hosted the music conference Bangladesh Music Week 2015.[36][37] The conference featured more than 20 foreign delegates alongside more than two dozen representatives of the Bangladeshi music scene.[38] The event also included a live performance showcase featuring local and foreign musicians and dancers,[39] along with an engineering masterclass for live lighting.[40] In February 2016, LiveSquare organized[41] the first show of a new series of concerts called Pop Republic,[42] starring Grammy and Brit Award-winning blue-eyed soul artist Joss Stone.[43] Notable festivals
