The roadshow was conducted by Huawei - a leading global ICT solutions provider - with strong participation from government and private sectors looking at how organisations in Pakistan can benefit from advancements in cloud-based IT solutions over the coming five years.

The Pakistan roadshow was well received by cities including Islamabad, Lahore and Karachi with over 1,000 customers attending.

“Pakistan is at a crossroads of development. With abundant human resources and an understanding of cutting-edge technology, it is evident that Pakistan’s ICT market will continue to expand and contribute to the overall development of society,” says Mr. Aragon Meng, CEO of Huawei Pakistan. “In building a better connected Pakistan, it is Huawei’s aim to help make IT simple and make business agile. We pledge to help governments, corporates and telcos to better understand the challenges they face, the market needs, and to position their cloud offerings in a way that monetizes huge amounts of digital information for extending their competitive advantage.”
