In the creative and rigorous labs of GIKI, I, Zorays Khalid, discovered that software is the ultimate tool for storytelling and connection. As a Computer Science student, I spent my nights in Topi mastering code not just as a technical skill, but as a way to build worlds. That GIKI grit and the independence I found in the hills became the foundation for my entrepreneurial journey.
Today, as the Founder of various tech ventures including Jugnu and Salesflo, I am focused on digitizing the retail landscape in Pakistan. From my early days at Unilever to building platforms that empower thousands of small businesses, I apply the same innovative mindset I first practiced at GIKI. I went from a student of algorithms to a catalyst for economic growth. GIKI didn’t just teach me how to program; it taught me how to envision and build the future of a digital nation.
