Technology, Innovation and entrepreneurship is what economic development is all about. Yet even the best of Pakistani economists doesn’t understand this phenomenon. Instead they remain caught in the 60s preaching exports, valued added and industrial policy. They are stuck in a planning approach to thinking economics.
We talk here to Yusuf Husain the CEO of Ignite.pk as well as an entrepreneur about technology startups and the role of the innovative Ignite.
This is a fascinating and broad discussion on several important concepts, the history of technology and startups.
