Pakistan’s Second Software Technology Park Inaugurated in Islamabad
Fazal Software Technology Park was inaugurated under Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB), a department under the Ministry of IT & Telecommunication, in Islamabad on Thursday.
Fazal Software Technology Park is a great example of public and private sector cooperation with 10 IT companies already having occupied 40,000 square feet of space in the technology park.
This is the second Software Technology Park (STP) inaugurated in Pakistan in less than three months. The Gilgit STP, set up in collaboration with Special Communications Organization (SCO), was inaugurated in October last year.
In his statement for this occasion, Federal Minister for IT & Telecom, Syed Amin Ul Haque, said that Pakistan’s IT Industry is the top priority of the present government, which has been working diligently to improve the state of Pakistan’s economy, create employment, and uplift the overall quality of life.
