Pakistan’s IT exporters have officially entered the Kuwaiti market for the first time, marking a major step in the country’s efforts to diversify its tech exports across the Gulf region.
A delegation of 17 leading Pakistani IT companies, led by the Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB), participated in a two-day Pakistan-Kuwait Tech Conference 2025 in Kuwait.
The event was jointly organized by the Pakistani Embassy in Kuwait and the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO).
Among GCC countries, Kuwait has long remained a distant market for Pakistan’s IT firms due to strict visa restrictions.
However, following the recent relaxation of visa policies for Pakistani professionals, firms are now looking to tap into Kuwait’s $22.48 billion ICT market, which is projected to grow to $39.83 billion by 2025.
PSEB CEO Abu Bakar said the conference served as a platform to showcase Pakistan’s innovation and technical strength, calling it “the beginning of long-term collaboration” between Pakistan and Kuwait in technology, trade, and investment.
The visiting companies, including 10Pearls, TPS Worldwide, Abacus Consulting, Systems Limited, and Digifloat, displayed solutions in AI, machine learning, cloud computing, fintech, healthtech, agritech, and enterprise software.
Muhammad Zohaib Khan, CEO of A2Z Creators, said the delegation’s visit was historic, being the first after visa facilitation for Pakistani professionals.
“Kuwait’s digital transformation under Vision 2035 offers tremendous opportunities for Pakistani firms to contribute to its economic diversification,” he said.
