Paklaunch is set to host a networking meetup in Riyadh on the sidelines of LEAP, one of the region’s major technology conferences, organised in partnership with Bayut KSA, part of the unicorn classified platform Dubizzle Group, led by Imran Ali Khan. The meetup is scheduled for the thirtieth of August, twenty twenty six, running from seven in the evening, and will take place at Bayut’s Riyadh headquarters.
The event is designed to bring together founders, investors, operators, and professionals from across the region’s broader innovation ecosystem, giving attendees in Riyadh for LEAP an additional networking opportunity outside the formal conference programming. By timing the meetup around LEAP, Paklaunch is positioning the gathering to draw from the concentrated pool of technology and startup professionals already travelling to Riyadh for the conference.
The partnership with Bayut KSA brings an established regional real estate technology platform into direct collaboration with Paklaunch’s network, given Bayut’s position as part of Dubizzle Group, a company that has continued to hold unicorn status within the classified and marketplace platform space across the Middle East and North Africa region. This collaboration reflects Paklaunch’s continued strategy of partnering with established regional companies to host its international meetups, lending additional credibility and access to local business networks.
Organisers have framed the event around the potential for meaningful conversations and new connections, positioning it as a space where people actively building and shaping the region’s innovation ecosystem can interact in a less formal setting than the main LEAP conference itself. This approach mirrors Paklaunch’s broader strategy across its various international meetups, prioritising organic relationship building over structured programming or formal pitch sessions.
Those interested in attending have been directed to register through the link shared as part of the announcement at https://lnkd.in/d9BkVjvA. The Riyadh meetup adds to Paklaunch’s growing calendar of international events held in cities including Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, and New York, reflecting the organisation’s continued effort to connect Pakistani founders and professionals with regional and global entrepreneurial networks across multiple continents.
