PASHA ICT Awards to Host Live Webinar on Applying and Pitching

Published on

PASHA ICT Awards 2026 is hosting a live webinar on how to apply, pitch, and win at the awards, giving prospective applicants direct access to the Chief Judge and Head Judges leading the session. The webinar is designed to help participants navigate the application process, prepare a compelling pitch, and get their questions answered live, addressing the kind of practical uncertainty that often holds first-time applicants back from submitting a competitive entry.

Scheduled for August 4, 2026, from 3 to 4 in the afternoon, the session will cover the application process itself, walking participants through what is required at each stage of submission. The webinar will also address winning pitch strategies, giving applicants insight directly from the judges who will ultimately be evaluating submissions, an unusually direct line of access compared to more generic pitch coaching sessions run by third parties unfamiliar with the awards’ specific evaluation criteria.

Beyond the immediate application and pitching guidance, the session will cover the pathway to APICTA, the regional competition that national P@SHA ICT Awards winners go on to represent Pakistan at. Understanding this pathway in advance can help applicants think beyond the domestic competition alone, potentially shaping how they frame their submission with an eye toward the kind of broader regional evaluation their venture might eventually face if selected as a national winner. The session closes with a live question and answer segment, giving attendees the opportunity to raise specific concerns directly with the judges themselves.

Interested participants can register through https://champ.ly/20aeEh4n, with the registration link for the actual webinar shared separately with registered participants closer to the session date. Seats are limited, and organisers have encouraged interested applicants to reserve their spot promptly. The webinar is supported by Tech Destination Pakistan under the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication, continuing the pattern of institutional backing behind initiatives designed to help Pakistani tech companies compete successfully for both domestic and international recognition.
