Digital Pakistan is the flagship initiative of the government of Pakistan to expand the knowledge-based economy and spur socioeconomic growth using digital technologies. The mobile industry plays a crucial role in driving digital transformation and is well placed to support the realisation of Digital Pakistan.
To continue on this path, mobile industry players must be able to roll out the required digital infrastructure and innovative services to bridge the digital divide and accelerate the adoption of digital solutions. However, this requires a whole-of-government approach (WGA) to tackle the headwinds that could undermine the economic health of industry players and their ability to contribute to socioeconomic progress.
