Why Startup Pakistan

Pakistan's early-stage entrepreneurial activity (TEA) rate is 12%, which is higher than the average for the Middle East and Africa region (8%) and the Asia Pacific Region (10%) but we fail to convert this activity in a large number of startups.  We need networks of entrepreneurs who are willing to help each other in developing innovative startups in Pakistan. 

IdeaGist is supporting the Startup Pakistan program by offering its Practical Entrepreneur Training program for free to all participants. This is an initiative by IdeaGist and it is not supported by the government with any direct or indirect money or association. Developed for first-time entrepreneurs to give them a good view of the path ahead, Practical Entrepreneur covers an entrepreneur's journey through four stages of maturity. Offering more than 80 short entrepreneurship learning videos from major universities and leading entrepreneurs, this program builds a basic foundation of entrepreneurial knowledge that is practical, and it can be done at your own pace. 

If you are a potential student or entrepreneur or thinking of starting your own business, join this Practical Entrepreneurial program which offers 20 hours of insightful videos covering a range of topics that are critical for an entrepreneur to learn and grow further.
