The conference enabled us to meet new partners & investors while also strengthening our presence in European countries”, said Sameer Ahmed, founder of Social Champ.
Social Champ, a Pakistani SaaS startup, is rapidly changing the marketing and advertising industry’s dynamics. They were the only Martech startup from Pakistan to attend the “Startup Showcase” with the theme “Future of Advertising and Marketing” in Lisbon, Portugal, in November.
Martech startup Social Champ, a Karachi-based social media management tool founded in late 2019 by Sameer Ahmed Khan, Zohaib Shakir, and Shakir Ghani, is a web- and mobile-based platform that allows individuals and businesses to manage their various social media pages (and profiles) on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Google Business Profile, and Pinterest. The recent Web Summit 2022 drew over 71,000 tech enthusiasts from 160 countries.
The summit acknowledged that the tech industry is not always inclusive or welcoming to all, and it aimed to change that by creating a safe, welcoming, and nurturing environment for all. “This summit has allowed us to move in the right direction,” said Shakir Ghani, Social Champ’s co-founder and COO.
As the only Martech from Pakistan to secure an alpha booth at the summit and present a pitch with the theme “40 seconds in 40 words,” Social Champ believes that conferences and seminars like these will help them secure better investment opportunities as well as easy access to the European market and global customers’ insights.
At the event, global fintech and martech startups discussed areas for adaptation, methods to evolve with changing technology and advertising trends, and critical initiatives that must be undertaken to help the marketing and digital communities progress through innovation and sustainable solutions.
At the event, the growing tech company gave all tech enthusiasts $100 Champ vouchers. “The future of tech in Pakistan is quite enriching. With new innovative startups springing up around every corner, the tech revolution appears to be on its way to assisting the world in its most difficult challenges. Presenting Social Champ at the Web Summit in Lisbon, Portugal, was a great validation that the world is in need of innovative solutions and will adopt your solution regardless of where you are in the world. The conference enabled us to meet new partners and investors while also strengthening our presence in European countries”, said Sameer Ahmed, founder of Social Champ, at the summit.
Pakistan is positioning itself as a center of technological innovation. The country’s thriving startup environment is attracting high-end investors. The advertising industry in Pakistan is worth $2 billion. With the growth of startups in the marketing and technology domains, industry experts believe that Pakistani companies will soon be able to meet the needs of the Pakistani and global markets.
