4 min read How Connected Pakistan Is Building a Stronger Digital Future for Businesses
Connected Pakistan is a dynamic tech-social enterprise driving the digital transformation of Pakistan’s business ecosystem. By building capacity, promoting innovation, and empowering entrepreneurs, it’s helping brands shape, scale and thrive in the digital era. Whether you’re a startup in Lahore or an SME in Islamabad, now is the time to tap into this movement, or risk being left behind.
In Pakistan, digital growth isn’t just on the horizon, it’s happening now. According to the Government of Pakistan, 13 million Pakistanis came online in 2024 alone, and the country is rolling out highly ambitious infrastructure targets including 10 million fiber‐broadband connections and 900 MHz of mobile spectrum.
Connected Pakistan is at the heart of this shift, making it possible for local businesses to ride the wave instead of being swept aside.
Why Pakistani Businesses Need a Digital Shift
The old way of doing business offline, slow, local, is starting to fade. Digital channels, tech platforms, and innovation are rewriting the rules:
- Buyers expect speed, transparency and trust online.
- Digital skills become a core business asset, not a nice-to-have.
- Global competition enters local markets via cloud and online tools, so local firms must level up.
Connected Pakistan knows this. Their mission? “Empowering Pakistan’s future through technology, innovation, entrepreneurship, capacity building and leadership.”
What Connected Pakistan Is Doing to Make a Difference
Here are their key initiatives that are directly relevant for businesses:
| Initiative | What It Does | Why It Matters for Your Business |
|---|---|---|
| Growth Summit | Brings entrepreneurs, experts, investors together. | Networking, learning, scaling insights, rare for local firms. |
| She Can programme | Empowers women with tech skills and digital tools | Opens talent, expands reach and boosts your brand’s impact. |
| E-Mustakbil (Campus Chapters) | Workshops + seminars in universities | Builds future workforce & fresh ideas your business can tap. |
| Connected Magazine / Podcast | Storytelling platform for startups & tech leaders | Helps you position your brand and get visibility in digital discourse. |
