US investment coming to Pakistan more and more every year, says Blome

US Ambas­sador Donald Blome has said that the US is Pakistan’s largest export market, and the US investment is seen coming to Pakistan more and more every year. He was speaking at the US-Pakistan Innovation Expo in Islamabad that showcased the success stories of US government-sponsored Pakistani startups. Ambassador Blome said that one of the top priorities of the US government was promoting inclusive economic growth and increasing trade and investment between the United States and Pakistan. “There is still room to grow and entrepreneurs are central to that effort. Pakistan is a country with immense potential, but it needs innovation and technology to take it to the next level,” Blome said. The two-day expo that ended on Sunday, provided a platform for established startups to showcase their business ideas and prototypes, and network with potential US and Pakistani venture capitalists and investors.
