WUZHEN
\nDr, Hafeez UR Rehman, a Pakistani electronics engineer?, has been selected as one of the 20? Global Youth Leaders at the 2025 World Internet Conference (WIC).
\nDr. Rehman leads an IT company named ITSOLERA, specialising in practical training in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI) and digital literacy.
\n\u201cIt is an honour to represent Pakistan at the World Internet Conference and to be part of a global dialogue shaping the future of digital cooperation,\u201d he told China Economic Net (CEN).
\n\u201cThis forum is not just about technology; it is about how humanity can move forward together through innovation, inclusion and shared values.\u201d
\nWhile much of his focus is on youth, education and skills, Dr? Rehman emphasises the deepening digital partnership between Pakistan and China, a cooperation that underpins much of the region\u2019s next?wave transformation.
\nAccording to Pakistan\u2019s Ministry of IT &?Telecommunication, Pakistan and China are actively exploring joint ventures in AI, smart cities and digital innovation.
\nFor example, a 2025 high?level delegation from China Mobile Communications Corporation visited Pakistan to discuss collaboration on AI enabled data centres, 5G rollout and connectivity under the China?Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) framework.
\nMoreover, China and Pakistan are committed to strengthening cooperation on digital economic infrastructure, digitisation, satellite navigation and the Internet.
\nIn September, China and Pakistan jointly issued a 2025\u20132029 action plan aimed at fostering an even closer China?Pakistan community with a shared future in the new era, highlighting collaboration in technology, trade, culture, and digital innovation.
\nDr. Rehman told CEN that his work and Pakistan?China youth innovation cooperation are aligned. \u201cOur nations have the potential to co?lead the next wave of technological transformation, one that not only connects systems, but connects people, opportunities and visions.\u201d
\nHe stressed that, through youth?driven innovation, the two countries can turn technological potential into meaningful global progress.
\nUnder the broader global context, Pakistan has been committed to integrating regional and digital trade flows. As noted, Pakistan is among the founding members of the Digital Cooperation Organization, which emphasises connectivity, digital services exports and cross?border digital economy integration.
\nDr. Rehman\u2019s company, ITSOLERA, is oriented toward training programs in cybersecurity, AI and digital literacy, areas that feature heavily in China-Pakistan cooperation priorities.
\nParticipation in WIC gives Dr? Rehman a platform to advocate for inclusive, technology led development embedded within China-Pakistan collaboration.
\n\u201cTechnology should not be a privilege for a few; it should be a right and a resource for all,\u201d he stated. Indeed, the Pakistan?China cooperation is not only infrastructure?oriented but increasingly digital?ecosystem?oriented, as a diagnostic report by the Asian Development Bank in July ?2025 outlines that Pakistan\u2019s digital ecosystem is rapidly evolving with infrastructure, economy and society elements strengthening.
\nDuring the Youth and Digital Future Forum at the 2025 WIC Wuzhen Summit, Dr? Rehman and other youth leaders will present perspectives on internet development and governance, highlighting how young innovators, particularly from Pakistan and China, are shaping a digital future defined by openness, harmony and shared prosperity.
\n\u201cThe future of digital cooperation is not about competition; it\u2019s about collaboration. Not about power, but about purpose,\u201d Dr? Rehman emphasised.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
