Innovation Hub: Indus AI Week 2026 Enters Day Two in Islamabad









The Indus AI Week continues to draw massive crowds at the Pakistan Sports Complex in Islamabad. Following Monday’s high-level summit at the Jinnah Convention Center, the focus has shifted to the “Innovation, Learning, and Engagement Arena.” This public-facing hub features an Industry Expo where tech leaders like Zong, in partnership with the Ministry of IT, are showcasing AI-driven solutions such as Z-AIVA and the newly unveiled Z-Smart Hub. The event is designed to bridge the gap between policy and practice, providing students and professionals with “under one roof” access to the latest global advancements.

The second day highlighted the launch of the Uraan AI Techathon 1.0 and the AI for Her pavilion, which specifically promotes women-led tech startups and training. Dr. Fayyaz, Deputy Chief Manager of SUPARCO, noted the significant presence of international participants, stating that the platform allows the younger generation to see how AI will revolutionize sectors from agriculture to space research. With the $1 billion national investment announced by PM Shehbaz Sharif yesterday, the atmosphere at the Sports Complex is one of high-energy competition and strategic networking.

The week-long celebration of intelligence is not limited to the capital; over 100 universities across Pakistan are holding parallel hackathons and workshops through February 15, signaling the country’s decisive move toward becoming a regional AI leader.
