Paklaunch: Connecting Pakistani Talent Across the Globe
We in the Bangladesh ecosystem look at Pakistan's with a mixture of awe and wonder...how exactly have they been able to grow so much faster than ours, when we have comparable economies? Here's a chance to learn from one of their greatest connectors: Aly Fahd from Paklaunch.
Aly Fahd is the Founder of Paklaunch (PL), a global community of Pakistani entrepreneurs, professionals and investors. Paklaunch started as a single WhatsApp group on 29th April, 2020 by seven friends to explore investment opportunities in Pakistan and the larger MENAPT region.
The platform has since grown to 300K+ member strong, hosted three major tech conferences and 300+ events; and facilitated 80+ startups raising $80M+ in the last two years. They are now planning an UnConference in Dubai where top 50 Pakistani entrepreneurs, large family offices and Pakistan-based investors will be coming to Dubai for two days to meet global investors.
Aly Fahd is Head of Strategic Sourcing at a Bay Area Tech Startup. He has previously worked in Engineering, Product Management and Operations for tech companies such as Amazon and Juniper.
