The recommendations will ultimately lead to the formulation of a robust digital policy.
“Pakistan Digital Policy Round-table 2021 provides an opportunity to examine the parallels between policy pillars and emerging changes in the technology space. It also reviews and suggests the diversity of socio-technical aspects,” says Nadeem A. Malik – a member of the PM’s taskforce for IT & Telecom.
