The private sector remains in the driving seat and regularly provides its input. It is also transforming public sector governance as it envisages e-procurement within three years of the Policy launch Advisor appreciated her engagement with youth through universities as e-Commerce Policy has very specific provisions for empowering youth and women entrepreneurs. The enthusiasm and positive momentum generated through the launch of Digital Pakistan needs to be maintained by adequately addressing the expectations of youth.
