Pakistan Inaugurates National Pavilion at GITEX Global 2025 — Showcasing a New Era of Digital Innovation and Global Ambition

Dubai, United Arab Emirates — Pakistan has officially inaugurated its National Pavilion at GITEX Global 2025, marking a defining moment in the country’s journey toward digital transformation and global technology leadership.

The inauguration was led by H.E. Faisal Niaz Tirmizi, Ambassador of Pakistan to the United Arab Emirates, in the presence of leading officials, innovators, and tech entrepreneurs. The ceremony celebrated Pakistan’s growing status as one of the world’s most dynamic emerging technology ecosystems.

“Our presence at GITEX Global reflects Pakistan’s confidence, creativity, and capacity to lead in the digital era,” said Ambassador Tirmizi.
“We are here not just to showcase our technology — but to build partnerships, inspire investment, and reaffirm Pakistan’s role in shaping the global digital economy.”

🌐 A Powerful National Showcase at the World’s Largest Tech Stage

The Pakistan Pavilion, established in collaboration with the Ministry of Information Technology & Telecommunication (MoITT), the Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB), PASHA, and the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), brings together over two dozen of Pakistan’s leading technology firms and startups.

These participants represent sectors driving Pakistan’s economic future — from artificial intelligence, fintech, and cloud computing to blockchain, digital payments, and cybersecurity.

The Pavilion’s central theme, “Innovate, Integrate, Inspire,” captures Pakistan’s ambition to position itself as a trusted global digital partner — connecting innovation in South Asia with opportunities across the Middle East, Africa, and beyond.

💡 Driving the Next Wave of Economic Growth

The Pakistan Pavilion at GITEX serves as a strategic platform to accelerate:

  • Technology exports and bilateral investment flows.
  • Startup visibility in international venture and innovation ecosystems.
  • Public-private partnerships for digital transformation projects.
  • Cross-border collaboration with investors, accelerators, and government agencies.

Ambassador Tirmizi highlighted the sector’s rapid expansion, noting that Pakistan’s IT and IT-enabled services (ITeS) exports surpassed $3.2 billion in the last fiscal year — a figure expected to grow sharply as international confidence strengthens in Pakistani innovation.

🚀 A National Ecosystem on the Rise

Over the past decade, Pakistan’s tech industry has evolved from a domestic services base into a globally competitive innovation hub.
Its young, skilled workforce — with over 75% of the population under 35 — and strong focus on STEM education have helped create a vibrant startup ecosystem now attracting international venture capital and partnerships.

This year’s GITEX participation showcases:

  • AI-driven enterprise solutions built in Pakistan and deployed abroad.
  • Fintech platforms reshaping regional digital banking.
  • Software export companies providing cutting-edge services to global clients.
  • Smart governance technologies aligned with Pakistan’s “Digital Pakistan Vision.”

“Our goal is to transform Pakistan into a digital powerhouse,” said a spokesperson from the Ministry of IT & Telecommunication.
“Through GITEX, we reaffirm our commitment to innovation, youth empowerment, and international collaboration.”

🤝 Strengthening UAE–Pakistan Tech Collaboration

The Pakistan Pavilion also highlights growing bilateral cooperation between Pakistan and the UAE in ICT investment, knowledge sharing, and digital infrastructure.

Ambassador Tirmizi emphasized the UAE’s importance as both a strategic market and innovation partner, noting that many Pakistani tech startups now operate successfully across the Emirates.

“Our nations share a vision of progress built on innovation, inclusion, and opportunity,” he said. “Together, we are building a bridge between our digital economies.”

🏆 A Moment of Pride and a Message to the World

Pakistan’s debut at GITEX 2025 is not merely symbolic — it is transformative.
It redefines the country’s image from a technology consumer to a technology creator, from an emerging market to an emerging powerhouse.

The Pavilion will host business matchmaking sessions, product demos, and innovation showcases throughout the event, connecting Pakistani entrepreneurs with international investors and partners.

“Pakistan’s participation proves that our innovation is borderless,” said one exhibitor. “We are ready to contribute to the global digital future — with talent, integrity, and impact.”
