When I moved back to Pakistan I made a promise with myself, I promised that I would help improve Pakistan. (Yes, I’m arrogant enough to believe that I can make a difference)

The Software Development industry is young; as with all young industries, it’s changing rapidly, new technology is introduced daily, methodolgies are developed and old ideas are abandoned quickly.  Keeping up with the changes is exhausting,  books aren’t easily available and while the internet is useful, you can’t find answers for open ended queries. Software developers in Pakistan need a forum where they can learn about the latest trends in our industry, share knowledge and network.

Mohtashim’s and Aleem’s presentations at the PASHA career fair inspired me to get off my ass and do something– introducing: AgilePakistan.org.  Agile Pakistan is a community of software developers, the goal is to meet once a month to discuss software development, to learn and improve ourselves as software developers.  Anyone and everyone is invited to the meetings, membership is not required, but if your are interested in presenting a topic then please email me at Sheheryar [at] AgilePakistan.org
