Winners of global awards “DX Inspire Awards” from Pakistan in previous editions at The World CIO 200 Summit – Global Edition in UAE
In every year edition Out of the Top 200 CIOs, 20 are able to win the DX inspire awards which included Pakistani winners in previous editions. This is indeed a moment of pride for Pakistan that capable CIOs are not only available in the private sector but also the public sector to lead the digital transformation journey for their organizations.
