With 220 million people and 70% of the population under 30 years old, Pakistan is prime for technological innovation with its highly talented developers and tech hungry consumers. This ecosystem transitioned from being an outsourced R&D center for companies like Kayak years ago to building Daraz, the Amazon of Pakistan which sold to Alibaba in 2018. Since then, there’s been tons of talented founders here who are building businesses to tackle social problems in the country. We have Jehan Ara who founded the Nest I/O in Karachi, the leading startup accelerator and community in Pakistan with over 200+ startups accelerated. Jehan gives us the scoop on the best startups from Pakistan, the challenges in the ecosystem and how they’re building momentum, fast.
