Aug 30(ABC):US-based global tech company Google has offered the provision of 15,000 scholarships per year to competent youth from Pakistan, aiming to revolutionise the country’s high potential IT sector, reported.
“The American tech giant wants to invest $3.5 million in Pakistan,” said Senator Dr Afnanullah Khan, a member of the Senate’s Standing Committee on Information Technology (IT).
He said similarly, that the sale of 5G licence would bring in billions of dollars in foreign exchange, while heavy venture capital investment would also be made in the private sector. “With modest planning, Pakistan’s IT exports can easily be increased to $10 billion in the next few years,” the senator said.
