The Pakistan Army has established Al-Buraq E-Business Centers in Okara as part of its efforts to promote information technology as a driver of national development. This initiative, launched in Okara Cantonment, aligns with the Army Chief's vision to empower youth through e-learning and e-business skills.
Since January 24, the program has guided 140 students, who have individually earned up to $3,000 through their newly acquired skills. The project has facilitated the launch of over 15 companies by participating students, which are now being connected with national and international firms for further growth.
The Al-Buraq E-Business Center project has shown promising initial results. The 140 startup companies initiated through these centers have reported significant early profits, contributing to increased employment opportunities for young people.
This initiative not only opens avenues for economic prosperity but also promotes a culture of innovation and self-reliance in the digital era. The Pakistan Army's focus on information technology reflects its broader commitment to national progress and youth welfare.
The success of these e-business centers demonstrates the potential of targeted skill development programs in creating tangible economic outcomes. By equipping youth with digital skills, the initiative aims to prepare them for the evolving job market and entrepreneurial landscape.
