The IEEEP Symposium continues to improve each year with the addition of topics relating to emerging technologies, said Adnan Sheriff, an executive of Jubilee Corporation.
Speaking to Engineering Review, Sheriff praised the organizers, stating, “The management must be appreciated and they should also keep on improving the symposium in the coming years.” He highlighted that discussions on new technologies are vital for keeping the event relevant and beneficial to the industry.
Explaining Jubilee Corporation’s support for events like the IEEEP Symposium, Sheriff said knowledge sharing and community service are core values of the organization. “Our elders, including my father, prioritized community service when launching this business, even though commercial interests naturally existed. Industry-academia liaison and supporting students have been part of our blood — we cannot leave it, and InshaAllah, we shall continue it,” he said.
Sheriff also emphasized the role of technology transfer in national development. “Our footprint in technologies is increasing because Pakistan urgently needs technology transfer. This is only possible if companies like ours introduce new technologies and gradually integrate them into the local environment,” he added.
The IEEEP Symposium is recognized as a key platform for promoting technological advancement and collaboration between academia and industry in Pakistan. – Engineering Review
