Vice-Chancellor DUET Prof. Faizullah Abbasi, Dawood Foundation’s Chief Executive Officer Sabrina Dawood, faculty members, alumni and a large number of students attended the event.
Around 120 projects prepared by 35 universities and educational institutions participated in the national competition. The governor said that a large number of pass-outs professionals were eager to go abroad and tried their luck as they had misconception about non-availability of opportunities in Pakistan. Imran Ismail said that impression about lack of opportunities in Pakistan was not true, especially since Prime Minister Imran Khan had assumed the government.
