With Support from the U.S. Mission to Pakistan, LMKT and Pakistan-U.S. Alumni Network Host ‘Mastering the Business Life Cycle’ Masterclass at National Incubation Center Karachi.
LMKT was honored to partner with the U.S. Mission to Pakistan and the Pakistan-U.S. Alumni Network (PUAN) to host the Mastering the Business Life Cycle Masterclass at NIC Karachi. Over five intensive days, more than 40 U.S. government exchange alumni from across Pakistan came together to explore the mindsets, skills, and strategies required to build resilient and impactful businesses.
This in-residence program brought together alumni representing a wide range of sectors, including technology, social entrepreneurship, services, and manufacturing. Through interactive training sessions, expert panels, exposure visits, and collaborative workshops, the program offered a hands-on learning experience focused on business growth, operational excellence, branding, risk management, and leadership development.
As part of the learning journey, participants visited leading innovation hubs across Karachi, including AshreiTech Academy at the National Aerospace Science & Technology Park (NASTP) and The Hive at LuckyOne Mall. The delegation also toured the Shahjehan S Karim Incubation Center at the Institute of Business Management.
The Masterclass concluded with a dedicated networking dinner, attended by Mr. Scott Urbom, Consul General of the United States in Karachi; Mr. Michael Chadwick, Public Affairs Officer; Mr. Kevin Furey, Economic Unit Chief; Mr. Faisal Jamil, MD LMKR; and Mr. Syed Azfar Hussain, Project Director NIC Karachi. The evening provided PUAN alumni an opportunity to engage with executives from the The American Business Council of Pakistan and C-level leaders from UPS, and Priceoye—fostering valuable connections for future collaboration.
At LMKT, we remain committed to empowering entrepreneurs and strengthening Pakistan’s innovation landscape through strategic partnerships and high-impact programs that drive long-term growth and opportunity.
