10 Pakistani startups to help you in daily life tasks

Just a decade back, it would have been considered absolutely bizarre that simple daily tasks like getting groceries or getting your clothes laundered would be affected by advancements in the field of IT. But, here we are, a decade later, and thanks to the phenomenon of ‘entrepreneurship’ which has encouraged different intelligent minds to look into matters which previously went unaddressed.

Today, we have done more than what we ever imagined. Everything related to humans is getting hassle-free due to the integration of IT within the society. Entrepreneurs have further bridged the gap by stepping out of their comfort zones and finding creative and innovative solutions using IT for the ease of humanity.
