Pakistan Software Export Board organized a B2B conference in Islamabad that brought together a delegation of American business executives with Pakistan’s leading IT, IT enabled services, and startup companies, creating a platform for direct engagement between the two business ecosystems. The conference was designed to move beyond introductions, giving Pakistani technology firms an opportunity for substantive conversations with potential partners from the United States.
Addressing the gathering, Pakistan Software Export Board Chief Executive Officer Faisal Jeddy said Pakistan’s technology sector has earned its place on the global stage through talent, resilience, and consistent delivery, adding that the opportunities available to the sector continue to grow. He said the board’s role extends beyond organizing events, encompassing the policy environment, industry connections, and institutional support needed to give international companies confidence to invest, build, and scale operations in Pakistan.
The conference drew support from the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication, the Special Investment Facilitation Council, Pakistan Software Houses Association, and the National Incubation Center, reflecting coordination across multiple government and industry bodies involved in Pakistan’s technology export ecosystem. Pakistan Software Export Board extended its thanks to these institutions along with every technology company and startup that participated, describing their involvement as a demonstration of the capability and ambition present within Pakistan’s digital economy.
The event adds to a series of international outreach initiatives Pakistan Software Export Board has organized in recent months, including subsidized participation in overseas technology exhibitions and dedicated investment conferences connecting Pakistani firms with markets in the Gulf and beyond. With the Islamabad conference now concluded, Pakistan Software Export Board said its focus turns to building on the connections made during the event, describing the ongoing work of converting these initial conversations into lasting partnerships between Pakistani and American technology companies.
