COLABS, in collaboration with Cloudways and Cursor Community Pakistan, is hosting AI Build Out, a curated technology event bringing together developers, freelancers, agency owners, and tech students for an evening of insights, demonstrations, and community engagement centred on artificial intelligence tools and developer workflows. The event is scheduled for Friday, May 22, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at COLABS Shahrah-e-Faisal in Karachi, with registration available through the event link at luma.com/zs57pz9w.
The speaker lineup for AI Build Out brings together some of the most active voices in Pakistan’s developer and artificial intelligence community. Leading the programme is Yahya Qureshi, who heads Cursor Community Pakistan and has been building a rapidly growing developer ecosystem around artificial intelligence-assisted coding tools. Joining him are Aisha Yaseen, Founder of Prompts2Products and Arehsoft, and Mobeen Ahmed, a technology leader specialising in software architecture. Faizan Laghari, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Startup Syndicate and Co-Founder of Qaflah, will also take the stage alongside Berjees Shaikh, Chief Technology Officer at atomcamp, and Danish Hameed, who brings deep experience in large-scale distributed systems. Rounding out the lineup are Najmus Saqib, Director of Engineering at DigitalOcean, who is currently building what is described as the world’s first agentic hosting platform, and Inha Ali, a Quality Assurance Engineer focused on artificial intelligence-driven testing and automation.
The breadth of the speaker roster reflects the increasingly multidisciplinary nature of artificial intelligence adoption within Pakistan’s technology community, spanning software architecture, product development, startup building, cloud infrastructure, and quality assurance. Events like AI Build Out are part of a growing pattern of community-led initiatives in Karachi and other Pakistani cities, through which developers, founders, and technology professionals are creating structured spaces to share knowledge, explore emerging tools, and build the peer networks that sustain a healthy innovation ecosystem. For participants, the evening offers direct access to practitioners who are actively working with artificial intelligence tools across different domains of the software industry, making it a practical and community-driven forum rather than a formal conference setting. Interested attendees are encouraged to register in advance given the curated nature of the event.
