It has been quite a magical evening for Team ICT Pakistan and for P@SHA. As you can see from the smiles, we bagged a few awards.
PixSense PSP won the award for Best in Media and Entertainment Applications. Adnan was apparently not expecting it because he didn’t have a bag large enough to take it home.
TPS Pvt Limited won the Award for Best in Tools & Infrastructure Applications. Shahzad Shahid was there to claim the trophy.
If the Kraysis team of Jamil, Khurram and Mustafa look shell-shocked, it is because they were probably not expecting to win. They were chosen as the Best in the Startup Category.
Imran Zia and I just had to have a picture taken with the winners. We missed our remaining judges - Jawwad Farid was there to see them receive the awards but had to leave right after for the airport. Sultan Hamdani and Nadeem Aslam Malik were already on the way home.
There were 134 applications in the running for awards at APICTA 2008 from 11 economies in 16 categories. Only 16 trophies were awarded and we bagged 3 of them. Yay!!! But as Stephen Lau, Chairman of APICTA rightly said - anyone who participated in these awards was a winner and should be proud of his or her achievements.
More later! Just wanted to break the news. Well done Team ICT Pakistan. It was an evening which gladdened our hearts. We are so proud of all of you. Three cheers for all the nominees!
