Hello and welcome to the Karavan podcast, a show about Pakistan's startup ecosystem where we have intimate conversations with founders and investors driven to catapult Pakistan into the digital age. We discuss what it’s really like to start a business, the highs and lows. The setbacks. The comebacks. The lessons. Everything. I am your host Amad Mian, Partner at Karavan, a community-driven VC platform. Given the nascent ecosystem, there’s a massive spread between talent in the country and the resources available to support them. Our mission is to close that gap by providing capital and expertise at the earliest stage. You can find more information about Karavan at www.karavan.vc. In this episode I sit down with Kalsoom Lakhani, founder of i2i the first accelerator in Pakistan an annual four-month program that provides business support and access to mentors and investment.
