More than 80 Pakistani companies will be showcasing their products and services at the Gulf Information Technology Exhibition (Gitex) 2024, slated to be held this month in the United Arab Emirates, state-run media reported on Tuesday. Gitex Global is considered one of the world’s largest tech shows, connecting industry leaders from big tech and innovative startups, as well as government officials, expert investors and corporate buyers. This year’s event will be held from Oct. 14-18 in Dubai. “The Pakistan Software Export Board and Trade Development Authority of Pakistan will be attending the event with more than 80 leading companies and start-ups participating,” Radio Pakistan said on Tuesday.
