Pakistan can achieve higher GDP growth and improve economic indicators by adopting technology at the government and the private level,” this was stated by Saquib Ahmad, Managing Director of SAP Pakistan, Iraq, and Afghanistan, while talking to media representatives at SAP’s Islamabad Office here on Thursday.
He emphasized the significance of embracing innovative technological solutions to drive sustainability both locally and on a global scale.
Through partnerships and initiatives, SAP supports a network that drives sustainable practices across industries. Saquib said, “At SAP we do not set sales targets anymore, rather we work towards goals that are defined around sustainability.
The business objective of SAP is to bring the carbon footprint to Zero. The solutions by SAP are being used by 62pc of the countries for budget making, procurement, and taxation at the government level, and even at resident level in the form of billing, purchasing products, receiving pensions, etc.”
Reiterating the need to set a precedent, Saquib stated, “Our mission is clear, to innovate, adapt, and lead by example. SAP firmly believes that sustainability is not just an option but a fundamental responsibility. In line with this ethos, we have embarked on a transformative path towards sustainability, driven by innovative strategies, cutting-edge technologies, and a dedication to having a positive impact on the environment and communities we serve.”
