BEIJING: Pakistan and China have taken a significant step to deepen technological ties by signing 24 memoranda of understanding (MoUs) in Beijing aimed at boosting digital cooperation under the Joint Working Group on IT Cooperation.
The MoUs include one government-to-government, seven government-to-business, and sixteen business-to-business agreements, reflecting a wide-ranging collaboration between the two nations.
The agreements focus on the development of an innovative digital corridor, which is expected to create new opportunities for Pakistani technology companies and strengthen cooperation in ICT infrastructure development.
Pakistan’s Ministry of IT and Telecom has been actively pursuing international partnerships to train up to 300,000 youths in advanced digital skills, promote artificial intelligence adoption, and expand IT exports and overall digital capacity.–APP
