Allied Bank maintains its position as the 5th largest commercial bank in Pakistan and has made several collaborations of a similar nature in the past.

National Incubation Center, a Pakistan-based startup incubation program run under a public-private partnership with the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication, is quite active at coming up with new initiatives to promote the IT industry and help aspiring entrepreneurs.

The NIC recently launched the 9th cohort of its 1-year incubation program, receiving more than 600 applications, of whom 22 were selected to join the program after the intense competition, including ARKA Creative, Naisky, and Tutoria.pk.
