“The idea behind organising the P@SHA ICT Awards 2016 every year is to celebrate homegrown Pakistani innovators” said Jehan Ara, President of P@SHA. “The Pakistan IT industry has been growing steadily over the years, and it is essential for us to tell the world that Pakistan is a country where young innovators transform their ideas and dreams into products that have been solving business and community problems.”
P@SHA started the application process for the awards in July inviting candidates from all over Pakistan. The evaluation process was held in three major cities where applicants were asked to present their product to a panel of industry experts who decided the final list of winners and runner ups.
