MediWeb, one of the pioneering startups incubated at IU CORE, has secured a place among the Top 34 Finalists of the Lok Sahaita STEM Talent Search Program, a national platform dedicated to recognising and promoting Pakistan’s brightest innovators and STEM talent. The recognition places MediWeb among a select group of ventures chosen from a broader pool of applicants competing within the programme’s STEM focused talent search.
MediWeb operates as a startup built around healthcare technology, with its branding and positioning suggesting a focus on connecting medical services or information through a digital platform. As one of the earlier startups to go through incubation at IU CORE, Iqra University’s Centre of Research and Entrepreneurship, MediWeb’s progress reflects the kind of student and university linked innovation the centre has continued to support since its establishment.
The Lok Sahaita STEM Talent Search Program operates as a national platform aimed at identifying and elevating STEM based innovation across Pakistan, giving selected finalists visibility and recognition beyond their immediate university or incubation environment. MediWeb’s selection among the Top 34 Finalists places the startup within a competitive national field, reflecting a level of technical and innovative merit recognised beyond IU CORE’s own internal evaluation processes.
IU CORE has continued to position itself as a platform supporting innovation, entrepreneurship, and young changemakers within Iqra University’s student and alumni community, with MediWeb’s national recognition serving as one example of the kind of outcomes the centre aims to produce through its incubation support. The centre’s continued backing of ventures such as MediWeb reflects Iqra University’s broader investment in building entrepreneurial capacity among students working on technology driven solutions.
MediWeb’s progress through the Lok Sahaita STEM Talent Search Program adds to a growing list of Pakistani student and early stage ventures gaining recognition through structured national innovation platforms, with the startup’s continued participation in the programme expected to bring further visibility to its work within Pakistan’s broader STEM and healthcare technology landscape.
