This programme was first launched in Pakistan in 2019 and was designed to address gender disparity in the

inclusion.
Commenting on the launch, Mr. Rehan Shaikh, Chief Executive Officer, Standard Chartered Pakistan said,
“Standard Chartered’s Women in Tech programme is aligned with the government’s agenda of supporting
small businesses, promoting financial inclusion, and enhancing financial education, with a focus on women
and technology. I am proud to announce the launch of Cohort 6 of this programme, designed to break down
barriers, create opportunities, and advance financial inclusion for women in Pakistan. Over the past five
years, this program has become a vital platform for aspiring women entrepreneurs by providing critical
funding, and focused mentorship on global project organisation, network building and investment readiness.
To date, out of the 1300+ participating enterprises, more than 100 women founders have graduated, and 33
