ISLAMABAD - The Islamabad Information Technology Park is set to be inaugurated on August 14, offering purpose-built facilities for tech startups, freelancers, and export-oriented software companies, an official from the Ministry of IT said.
Spanning 66,893 square meters, the state-of-the-art park will comprise two basements, a ground floor, and nine upper floors. It is designed to accommodate 120 office spaces for IT and IT-enabled service (ITeS) companies, as well as a startup incubation center with 15 dedicated offices.
The official added that the park will feature a business support center providing legal, marketing, and financial advisory services. It will also host an industry-academia linkage center to promote collaboration between educational institutions and the IT sector, and a Tier III Data Center — Pakistan’s first of its kind — to ensure uninterrupted power and data security.
“This will be one of the highest standard data centers in the country and a significant milestone for Pakistan’s IT infrastructure,” the official said.
He said that the park would serve as a platform for fostering cooperation among local and international academia, researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers.
In addition to the Islamabad facility, a similar IT park is planned near Karachi airport. The initiative aims to improve workspace availability and supporting infrastructure for IT and ITeS firms, while also boosting the industry’s growth.
