Entrepreneurship is the way forward. With a nation full of young brilliant people, creating sustainable businesses can help the economy. Pakistan has seen a surge in entrepreneurial activity over the past year and The AppJuice has brought you the best of the updates. From budding startups to events that teach people methods to acquire funding for their businesses, events like these help change the opinion of people and inspire them to innovate and develop.

JumpStart Pakistan is proud to bring you the opportunity to start your own business and grow it in what they term as ‘green-house environment’, a controlled environment monitored by specialists and mentors who can then prevent you from making mistakes that they made. With valuable advice and support, many budding entrepreneurs can well be on their way to success. Microsoft and GDG are the official Technology partners while The AppJuice will be bringing you coverage of the event from Islamabad.

The best part about JumpStart is that like SharkTank Series, the potential businessmen can pitch their ideas in front of investors and can get funding right on the spot. This is a one of a kind opportunity because new businesses find lack of funding to be a particularly discouraging factor. If you have had a startup idea for a while, take this opportunity and go pitch your idea in front of investors. Who knows, you may become the next great business that everybody will talk about in Pakistan.

The event is all set to be held on 1st March, 2014 in Islamabad. If you have an idea, you can register as a co-founder and pitch your startup but if you want to become a part of jumpstart, you can even register as a Delegate! The registrations are open, don’t miss this opportunity to become an active part of jumpstart!
