TiEcon 2009

Held on 4 November 2009 and conducted by The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE) Karachi, TiEcon 2009 proved to be a huge success for present and future business people. The one-day conference-cum-workshop was intended to provide a networking platform along with discussions with all the business gurus on the success of their businesses. The participants included students and entrepreneurs. The speakers included were:
Jawwad Farid, CEO Alchemy
Sameera Raja, Owner, Canvas Gallery
Jehan Ara, President PASHA
Adil Moosajee, Owner, EGO
Saleem Shahzad Ali, CEO Student Biryani
and others.
The conference started with tales form the business tycoons of how they strived to lift up from their failures and pursue their dreams to become successful. It was followed by a Q/A session with the speakers. A debate was conducted between four speakers on "Conventional wisdom is becoming increasingly irrelevant" which proved to be a very learning experience. The performance by Taal Karisma stole the show. The band is the first body percussion band of Pakistan and they proved it by performing live producing sound by hitting their bodies rhythmically. The techniques of pitching ideas with Jehan Ara and Jawwad Farid were outstanding.
Overall, the conference was a very fruitful and learning approach to discuss and network for established and aspiring entrepreneurs. In the end, the participants received gifts from sponsors (that was the best part)!

NRO - black law of the country?

What is happening in this country? What has happened to this nation? MQM President Mr. Altaf Hussain is suggesting to the President of the country to resign and face the courts!!!???
The mistakes of former President are making the present of this country suffer. It was a drastic step to forgive all the law suits against big political culprits but now the problem has risen up again. The demon named National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) is back and God knows better what's going to happen now.
