Pakistan Set to Host ITCN Asia 2024
The most recent sources state that a broad delegation of foreign investors representing twelve different nations will inject a substantial sum of $500 million into the technology ecosystem. Their goal is to demonstrate a strong belief in the possibilities of the area. More than 700 booths will be present at the event, including both domestic and international tech giants like Lenovo, RedHat, and Microsoft. Furthermore, in over 20 knowledge sessions, over 250 speakers from around the world will offer their ideas. The AI Summit, Global Security Symposium, and Gaming and Scholars Round Table are just a few of the exciting events and summits that are planned. They are expected to encourage collaboration and thought leadership. The Investor Summit and Freelancer Summit stand out the most since they provide excellent networking possibilities.
The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), the Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB), the Pakistan IT Industry Association, the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), and the Ministry of IT and Telecom will all provide support for the tech extravaganza.
