In the field of education, the company has partnered with institutions like Higher Education Commission (HEC) and Punjab Group of College (PGC) to provide training of digital skills and remote learning through platforms like Microsoft Teams. In the government sector, Microsoft has provided technology solutions to more than 200 Higher Education Institutions. Apart from this, Microsoft has also been involved in initiatives like building training centers and offering online courses.
Why did the company take a big decision?
Jawad Rahman, former Country Manager of Microsoft Pakistan, says that this decision of the company is related to business. Jawad, who was associated with the company from 2000 to 2007, says that this decision of the company indicates that big companies are finding difficulties in working in the current environment of Pakistan.
Former President Arif Alvi expressed concern
