STAFF REPORT KHI: MIT Technology has launched technology review in Pakistan to spread science and technology awareness to a wider local audience and foster entrepreneurship as well as innovation in Pakistan.


This is the latest initiative in a series to create impact in Pakistan.


Jason Pontin, CEO, Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of MIT Tech Review, Ken Morse, Founding MD of MIT Entrepreneurship Center and Farrokh Captain, Chairman, MIT Enterprise Forum of Pakistan and Umar Saif, Chairman PITB, Vice Chancellor ITU and Editor of Tech Review Pakistan told the press here about MITs role as a technology leader and its initiative to impart latest knowledge of technology.


The latest initiative is to launch the MIT Technology Review (TR) in Urdu and English languages with the intent to create a new tech generation in Pakistan fully aware of what is happening around the world in technology and innovation.


Speaking on the occasion, Pontin noted, “Whenever I visited Pakistan, I realized that here was lack of realism, technology based content that could provide guidance to the local technologists, academia, researchers, scientists and journalism analysis.”


Equally, researchers and innovators and entrepreneurs of Pakistan can show case their work to the international community through this world famous technical magazine, said Morse, founding father of MIT Entrepreneurship Center.
