Pakistani companies exporting IT and IT-enabled services are participating in Singapore Tech Week for the first time under the banner of “TechDestination Pakistan.

Muhammad Umair Nizam, Senior Vice Chairman of P@SHA, emphasized the importance of Singapore as a key market for Pakistan’s IT exports. “This is our first participation in STW, and we see tremendous

potential for collaboration. We aim to have an even larger presence in future editions,” he said.

Singapore’s strategic role as a global technology hub makes it an important destination for Pakistani IT companies seeking to expand their international footprint, driving Pakistan’s ambition to become a leading tech exporter. ” Prominent companies, including Hexalyze, Alethia-AI, Synapsify, Zeki Expert Solution, and Ecommerce Gateway Pakistan, showcased their innovative solutions, engaging with potential buyers and regional partners.

CEO Hexalyze Saad Shah said that Pakistan’s IT companies are now actively exploring new markets, mainly the Asian region through Singapore, to accelerate the enhancement of exports in terms of values and volume.

He mentioned that Pakistani companies were not focused on Singapore in the past due to their market concentration in the USA. However, Pakistani companies are increasing their presence in Singapore by

establishing offices and participating in tech events. Pakistani companies with their expertise in different fields of ICT will attract a good number of clients and business orders this year.

Her Excellency Ms. Rabia Shafiq, the High Commissioner of Pakistan in Singapore, visited the pavilion and offered support and encouragement to the companies’ efforts.

According to an estimate, Singapore is one of the global leaders in technology development. The ICT market was $47.88 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $76.67 billion by 2029.
