According to the partnership, Kaymu will be providing its e-commerce expertise to Plan9’s startups to consolidate its online portals alongside mentorship services as well. Last year, Shayaan Tahir of Homeshopping.pk also shared somewhat similar plan with TechJuice, when he said that he is planning to launch and ecommerce incubator for Pakistan. The incubator never saw the light of the day. but we are seeing Kaymu taking interest in a somewhat similar space to get more serious sellers on board.
