Pakistan’s IT Sector Witnesses 13% Growth in Last Four Month

The Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunications of Pakistan has announced that the information technology (IT) sector has had an impressive 13% growth in IT and IT-enabled Services (ITeS) exports over the last four months.

The growth has been bolstered by introducing special foreign currency accounts tailored specifically for IT services firms, enhancing the financial framework of the industry.

Concurrently, the government focuses on skill development, targeting many university graduates. Through ongoing training programs, the aim is to upskill 200,000 individuals in the IT domain, thereby enhancing the overall competency of the workforce.

The Pakistani freelancing community stands to gain considerably from the inauguration of e-Rozgaar and co-working centres nationwide. These centres, backed by interest-free loans and training support, are designed to cultivate a nurturing environment for freelancers, facilitating their professional advancement.

Further aiding freelancers, integrating PayPal for receiving international payments is a significant move, simplifying global financial transactions. This benefits individual freelancers and enhances Pakistan’s position in the global freelance market.

In a major stride towards technological advancement, the government has announced plans to introduce 5G services, a move poised to transform the telecom industry and foster a more favourable environment for capitalism.

The endorsement of Pakistan’s inaugural national space policy is a testament to the commitment of private-sector entities to providing affordable internet services. This policy is expected to be a game-changer regarding internet accessibility and cost.

Additionally, establishing a Telecom Tribunal and implementing a Telecom Infrastructure Sharing Policy are significant steps. These initiatives aim to ensure a competitive and efficient telecom landscape in Pakistan.

Fostering Innovation and Entrepreneurship

The Pakistan Startup Fund (PSF) has been introduced to stimulate innovation and entrepreneurship. This initiative offers co-investment opportunities and has launched the International Startup Exchange Programme. The PSF is expected to generate an extraordinary Rs50 billion in value creation annually within the startup ecosystem, as Dr. Umar Saif, the Federal Minister of IT & Telecom and Science & Technology, envisioned.

In conclusion, these comprehensive initiatives collectively underscore the government’s dedication to fostering growth and innovation in Pakistan’s rapidly evolving IT sector.
