PSEB also informed that the government is especially prioritizing the establishment of software parks in relatively underdeveloped areas to ensure holistic growth of the IT sector across Pakistan. The IT sector of Pakistan is already expected to reach $10 billion in exports by 2030. The steps being taken by PSEB will ensure that the IT sector is on the right track especially if the government wants to reach its target of $5 billion in IT exports by 2023.
