Several Pakistani IT and Information Technology-enabled Services (ITeS) companies are gearing up to showcase their innovations at LEAP 2025, set to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from February 9 to 12. The event will focus on smart technology, emerging trends, and solutions to drive business growth.

LEAP 2025 presents a valuable opportunity for Pakistani IT companies to display their products and services on an international stage, according to Pakistan Software Houses Association (P@SHA) Chairman, Sajjad Mustafa Syed.

To encourage business collaboration, P@SHA and the Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB) will host the “Pakistan x Saudi Business Forum” on February 8.

This forum aims to foster B2B networking, industry exploration, and matchmaking opportunities between the IT sectors of both countries.

Syed further emphasized that the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) has identified IT as a key sector for attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), in line with Pakistan’s IT industry policy.

At LEAP 2024, Pakistan’s IT industry made a significant impact, with 74 companies and about 800 delegates in attendance.

The event attracted 172,000 participants from 183 countries, earning the title “Digital Davos.” LEAP 2025 is expected to build on this success and strengthen global tech partnerships.
