Paklaunch Hosts Deep Tech AI Webinar with Golden Sparrow General Partner 

Published on

Paklaunch is hosting an exclusive webinar on Sunday, June 21, 2026, at 10:00 PM Pakistan Standard Time, featuring Rishaad Currimjee, General Partner at Golden Sparrow, for a conversation on Deep Tech, Artificial Intelligence, and India. The webinar is accessible through the official link at bit.ly/3DiJLuq and is open to founders, investors, and technology professionals who want to engage with the investment perspective of a venture capital firm that is actively backing category-defining companies in deep technology and enterprise artificial intelligence for global markets. The session offers a direct line to the thinking of an investor who is deploying capital at the frontier of the technology landscape and whose portfolio decisions reflect a considered view of where the most consequential innovation opportunities currently reside.

Golden Sparrow is a venture capital firm focused on backing exceptional founders building deep technology and enterprise artificial intelligence companies with the ambition and capacity to define new categories in global markets. The firm’s focus on this intersection reflects a conviction that the most durable and valuable technology companies of the next decade will be built at the frontier of scientific and engineering capability rather than in the application layer above it, and that the founders who combine deep technical expertise with the commercial and organisational skills to build global businesses from that foundation represent the most compelling investment opportunity available to venture capital at the current moment. Rishaad Currimjee’s perspective as General Partner gives him a vantage point on this landscape that is shaped by direct engagement with founders, technologies, and market dynamics at the cutting edge of deep tech and enterprise artificial intelligence development.

The webinar’s thematic framing around deep tech, artificial intelligence, and India provides a specific and substantive lens through which the broader conversation about technology trends and investment opportunities will be examined. India’s emergence as a significant source of deep technology and enterprise artificial intelligence companies building for global markets is one of the more consequential developments in the global startup landscape over the past several years, and understanding the dynamics driving that emergence, including the talent pool, the investor ecosystem, the regulatory environment, and the specific sectors where Indian-origin founders are building most compellingly, is directly relevant for founders and investors in Pakistan and across the broader South Asian and diaspora technology community that Paklaunch serves. The conversation will cover emerging technology trends, founder opportunities within the deep tech and artificial intelligence landscape, investment perspectives on where capital is moving and why, and the evolving competitive and collaborative dynamics of the global AI ecosystem.

For the Paklaunch community of founders and investors who attend the June 21 webinar, the session offers a form of access that is rarely available outside of direct investor relationships or high-end conference circuits, giving participants the opportunity to hear directly from a practitioner who is making consequential capital allocation decisions in the technology categories that are most shaping the direction of the global innovation economy. The online format makes the session accessible to participants across Pakistan, the diaspora, and the broader international community that Paklaunch reaches through its events and programming, and the 10:00 PM Pakistan Standard Time start accommodates participants across multiple time zones. Those interested in attending can join through the official link at bit.ly/3DiJLuq.
