Zohaib Khan, Chief Executive Officer of A2Z Creatorz, has announced his candidacy for a seat on the PASHA Central Executive Committee for the 2026 to 2028 term. Khan has led A2Z Creatorz, a web and digital services company with clients and offices spanning multiple countries, since 1998, and he has framed his candidacy around a focused agenda built to strengthen PASHA as an institution, support its members directly, and accelerate the growth of Pakistan’s IT and ITeS exports.
His manifesto opens with a proposal to empower the PASHA secretariat, arguing that a professionally resourced secretariat with clear performance indicators and institutional continuity would allow the Central Executive Committee to concentrate on strategy, governance and oversight rather than day to day administrative matters. On policy, he wants PASHA to pursue research backed advocacy aimed at predictable taxation, an easier business environment, export friendly banking arrangements, and simpler regulation for both IT exporters and companies serving the local market. His third point centers on promoting Pakistani products and services at home and abroad, opening public sector projects to local firms, and converting global visibility into contracts that benefit member companies directly.

The remaining two points of his platform focus on digital infrastructure and member services. Khan wants to build what he calls a Digital PASHA, consisting of a member portal, helpdesk and ticketing system that tracks every request through to resolution and remains accessible from cities beyond the major urban hubs. His final commitment centers on future ready skills in AI, cloud computing and cybersecurity, alongside a pledge of equal engagement and faster resolution of member concerns regardless of whether a company employs five people or five thousand.
Khan’s candidacy comes as PASHA members prepare to vote on September 17, 2026, for the ten open seats of the Central Executive Committee, with two additional reserved seats for women entrepreneurs to be filled the following day by the newly elected committee. Based on the Election Commission’s regional structure, voting is expected to be coordinated across Islamabad and Rawalpindi, Lahore, and Karachi, where PASHA maintains its secretariat and regional offices. Voting will take place through secret ballot between 9 am and 5 pm, with original CNIC or passport required for identity verification at polling stations. The complete final voters list for the 2026 elections is available on the PASHA final voter list, and more information about Khan’s professional background can be found on his LinkedIn profile.
