Google for Entrepreneurs, Samsung Pakistan and the US Department ofState, the Nest is steadily gaining attention because of its
initiative to revolutionize the budding tech sector in Pakistan.
The Thought of it
The idea behind launching a place
like Nest goes way back, and it was Jehan Ara, President P@SHA and a group of
like-minded industry pros who came up with the idea of having a tech
incubator in the buzzing city of Karachi. Joined by Partners Google
for Entrepreneurs and Samsung along with a very generous grant from
the U.S. State Department, that dream is now a reality and stands
tall and proud in the centre of the city spanning over a massive 6500
sq ft space.
The Feel of it
Just take a sneak peek into the
office once and you'll know what I am talking about. The Nest I/O is
unlike any other office space in Pakistan, and the cool aura grips
you instantly as you make your way through the chic interiors and
colorful surroundings! Young entrepreneurs can nest in and make this
place their home, and get access to a multitude of tech facilities as
well as training boot camps, mentoring sessions and community events.
Just think of the opportunities and avenues it can open for building
your own brand!
The Look of it
Designed by a bunch of cool guys who
clearly knew what they were doing was ultra amazing, the Nest I/O
demands your attention from the very first glance. The creative whiz
behind the venture Ms Jehan Ara, President P@sha and an enigmatic
lady indeed, has infused her personality into every inch of the
decor. The place shouts of vibrancy and energy and creates the perfect
mood that start-ups and entrepreneurs need to get their creative
juices dripping!
The Dream of it

operation and aims to provide co-working space to an additional 700
entrepreneurs. Plus, being a part of the Google for Entrepreneurs
community, the Nest will also let local start-ups reach out and
