Bioniks, a Pakistani startup focused on social impact through healthcare innovation, is heading to Bangkok for the Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia Conference 2025. Scheduled for September 11, the event will highlight Bioniks as a featured social impact startup, marking another milestone for the company and its founder, Anas Niaz. This recognition comes after Niaz was listed in Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Asia in 2023, a moment that placed both him and Bioniks in the spotlight as symbols of innovation emerging from Pakistan’s growing entrepreneurial landscape.
Bioniks has been working at the intersection of technology and healthcare, developing advanced yet affordable prosthetic solutions that utilize robotics and 3D printing. These innovations are designed to empower individuals with physical disabilities by providing them with access to high-quality, functional, and customized prosthetics. The startup’s work is not only transforming lives but also presenting Pakistan as a hub for meaningful innovation in the global arena. The recognition from Forbes highlights how the company’s mission extends beyond business success to making tangible social impact, particularly in regions where access to advanced medical technologies is limited.
For Anas Niaz, the journey from being featured in Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia in 2023 to now returning as part of a recognized startup is a reflection of the consistent progress Bioniks has made. Under his leadership, the company has gained visibility for merging compassion with technology, and for proving that startups from Pakistan can compete on an international stage. His role as CEO continues to attract attention not only within the startup ecosystem but also among global stakeholders looking at how emerging economies contribute to technological and social development.
The Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia Conference serves as a gathering point for some of the region’s most influential young leaders across multiple industries. Bioniks’ presence at the event offers an opportunity to showcase Pakistan’s potential in innovation, build valuable international collaborations, and share how technology can be applied to address challenges that are both local and global in scope. With its upcoming participation in Bangkok, Bioniks is set to represent not only its own vision but also a broader narrative of how Pakistani startups are using creativity and technology to make meaningful contributions to the world.
