Celebrating the win at APICTA, Jehan Ara, President P@SHA said, 

“The P@SHA ICT Awards , P@SHA’s signature event for the past 14 years, has provided a platform to show the world what technology companies and young people in Pakistan are capable of. This year we have once again proven that our products can be benchmarked against the best in the region”

Winners from the Asia Pacific compete in this three-day regional event judged by industry professionals, technology veterans and thought leaders from the APAC region. The consistent great results by Team Pakistan are due to the concerted efforts of judges and mentors who work tirelessly with winners at the P@SHA ICT Awards which took place in Islamabad in October this year. International APICTA Judges from 16 countries who evaluated the categories in which Pakistan participated spoke about the consistently high standard of technology products presented by Pakistan year after year.
