Pakistan Tech Forum

Who we are

The bridge between Pakistani tech and the world.

Pakistan's technology industry exports billions of dollars a year, yet most of its companies have never stood in front of an international buyer. Pakistan Tech Forum exists to close that gap: we take Pakistani founders and executives to the world's biggest technology events, put them in the right rooms, and bring the relationships home.

Founded in Lahore in 2022, PTF has run more than fifteen international missions across three continents, from its first delegation in Baku to London Tech Week, GITEX and World AI Week, alongside PSEB and TDAP where their pavilions and subsidies open doors.

An action-oriented think tank for Pakistan's tech economy. Now member-governed, under a nine-member board. Non-profit by principle.

Governance

A nine-member board.

Three principles

How the Forum runs.

Non-profit by principle.

No dividends, ever. Surpluses are reinvested into missions, programs and people.

Member-funded, member-governed.

A nine-member board, one community, and decisions made in Lahore for Pakistan's technology industry.

Pakistan first.

Every mission, meeting and program exists to grow Pakistan's technology exports and its reputation in the world.

Taking Pakistani tech to the world.
