IT infrastructure of Pakistan

The IT industry in Pakistan has undergone a dramatic change in the recent years led by the government with the aim of making it a major player in the industry.

With perhaps every global IT company in the world having presence in Pakistan, and with revenues growing by 30-40% year on year, the IT industry is probably the most exciting and dynamic sector in the country today. An industry characterized by about 75,000 professionals, major ongoing IT projects within the government and the private sector to the tune of hundreds of millions of US dollars, and world-class software product and services companies bears testimony to the vibrancy of the IT and IT enabled services sector in Pakistan. The convergence of communications, computing, and entertainment has resulted in the blurring of boundaries between disciplines and IT companies now come in all shapes and sizes. IT has indeed been taken out of the closet and has been mainstreamed into every aspect of industrial and economic activity within the country.
