About Us: Science & technology sector remain neglected in Pakistan; both at government and public level. Even, when it comes to development or criticism, there was no media to address the issues. We all know that the news media plays a critical role as one of the primary means through which scientific and technological issues are brought to the attention of the general public. The reality of science for most people is what they experience through mass media channels. Good reporting allows people to evaluate science policy issues and make rational personal choices; poor reporting can mislead a public that is increasingly affected by science. The need for the science and technology newspaper took place and the concept of weekly (future’s daily) newspaper “Technology Times” evolve.
Technology Times: A brief profile
Technology Times is the first and only newspaper of Pakistan in the field of Science and Technology (S&T) to enhance public understanding on science and technology, online as well as in print. We believe that knowledge (and particularly scientific and technological knowledge), had become the primary force propelling both national economic well-being and global economics. And this can be achieved through awareness of masses. The objectives of Weekly “Technology Times” are: to disseminate scientific and technological information among masses; to project Pakistani scientists and technopreneurs; and to develop academia-industrial liaisons.
Technology Times is not only limited to one or two sectors but addressing the whole scenario of country’s scientific and technological development either it is in Information Technology, Telecom, Agriculture, Environment, Energy or STEM Higher Education.
