3 H A ICT AWA R D S MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT I am pleased to announce the 14th P@SHA ICT Awards, an annual P@SHA program to recognise and promote the best products and services among our IT and ITES industry of Pakistan. The IT & ITES industry of Pakistan is now being recognised by our government as the leading sector capable of pushing economic growth. The economic dependency is shifting from an agrarian and industrial economy to a knowledge based economy. Persistent and effective policy advocacy by the Chairman and Members of the Central Executive Committee of P@SHA has convinced the authorities to not only extend the income tax exemption on exports till 2019 but also exempt technology start-ups working domestically from income tax for the initial three years of their operations. This is an unprecedented move to encourage the growth of technology businesses in Pakistan and one that comes with added responsibility for us to outperform ourselves. It is imperative for us to highlight the star performers of our industry, promote the best products and encourage innovation. We have 32 award categories this year and we are expecting an unprecedented participation in all categories. The judges are confident the quality this year will create a tough local and regional competition. Jehan Ara President
