Why Women in Tech
Women-led businesses in Pakistan — like those around the world — have the potential to generate up to 2 to 3 times more revenue per dollar invested than their male counterparts. Yet, they continue to receive less than 3% of venture funding. The Women in Tech Accelerator aims to bridge this gap and unlock opportunities for women entrepreneurs to drive innovation, scale their ventures, and inspire inclusive economic growth.
