Pakistan’s thriving digital economy is being celebrated by the Payoneer XBorder Excellence Awards 2024. This prestigious event recognizes the outstanding achievements of entrepreneurs, freelancers, and tech innovators who are shaping the future of global commerce.
The IT and IT-enabled services sector, a major contributor to Pakistan’s freelance economy, generated over $3.2 billion in export earnings during 2023-2024. The Payoneer XBorder Excellence Awards aim to acknowledge the significant role these individuals play in driving the nation’s digital export potential.
The awards will recognize exceptional achievements in three key categories: businesses driving exponential growth in Pakistan’s booming e-commerce sector, innovators shaping global trends in digital marketing and gaming, and leading talent in software development, graphic design, content creation, and digital consulting. These categories highlight how Pakistani innovators connect with international markets, redefining global outsourcing.
A key highlight of the event will be a panel discussion titled “Beyond Borders: Empowering Pakistan’s Innovators for Global Success.” Industry experts will share insights on critical themes such as challenges and opportunities for Pakistani SMBs to expand globally, the role of digital payments in facilitating cross-border trade, and strategies for leveraging innovation to thrive in the international marketplace.
By recognizing these game-changers, the Payoneer XBorder Excellence Awards underscore the vital role of Pakistan’s digital talent. This event celebrates how these individuals are driving innovation and expanding the country’s footprint in the global economy.
