National Idea Bank (NIB) is the initiative of the Honorable President of Pakistan, Dr. Arif Alvi, and was inaugurated by him in February 2021 at his presidency. NIB is a platform to recognize and support innovative ideas in Pakistan. The outstanding ideas are not only getting recognition but also chances for further implementation as industrial integration or investor’s attraction. Winners of NIB 2021 were given recognition and awards by the President of Pakistan, on 27th January 2022. A complete overview of the NIB program can be found at https://nibpk.org/.
After the great success of NIB 2021, we have now opened the 2nd Call for Ideas for NIB 2022. This year nine different sectors, for ideas submissions, have been announced covering significant fields of life.
We invite students, faculty, entrepreneurs, and innovators from your university to participate in the NIB 2022 call for ideas. The Deadline for Ideas submission is 29th August 2022.
