Reviving Pakistan’s Economy, Shakeel Ahmad Meer, Chairman Meer Group, Launches Vision Pakistan 2030
Islamabad: – To redefine Pakistan’s economic trajectory, Shakeel Ahmad Meer, the esteemed British business tycoon with extensive ventures across 11 countries and Chairman of Meer Group, has officially launched “Vision Pakistan 2030.” This ambitious national initiative is poised to unlock unprecedented opportunities, foster collaboration, and significantly boost the nation’s economy and global image.
Meer Group, under the dynamic leadership of Mr. Meer, is embarking on a multi-faceted strategy that addresses key areas of economic development, starting with a strong focus on enhancing Pakistan’s intrinsic strengths and connecting them to the global stage.
Transforming Tourism: A New Era of Hospitality and Infrastructure
At the heart of Vision Pakistan 2030 is a comprehensive plan to revitalize the country’s tourism sector, particularly in the breathtaking Northern regions. Recognizing Northern Pakistan as one of the most beautiful places on Earth, Meer Group is investing heavily in building world-class tourism infrastructure. The first of these projects, a luxury serviced apartment complex, is already underway, with plans to add ten more in top tourist destinations across the North. These developments promise to offer unparalleled luxury accommodations, setting new benchmarks for hospitality. Crucially, Meer Group is also committed to developing the necessary infrastructure to ensure easy and convenient access to these remote natural wonders. This infrastructure development will be complemented by a global tourism promotion drive, showcasing Pakistan’s stunning landscapes and the widely praised hospitality of its people to an international audience. The aim is clear: to attract billions of dollars in foreign investment and position Pakistan as a premier global tourist destination.
City-Level Business Hubs: Cultivating Local Economies with Global Reach
A cornerstone of Vision Pakistan 2030 is the establishment of “MG Business Hubs” in every major city across the nation, commencing with Islamabad in July 2025. These hubs are designed to bridge critical gaps in the market by creating a vibrant platform where professionals, businesses, and investors can converge and collaborate.
Mr. Meer keenly observes that while talented professionals seek career growth, opportunities are often limited. Similarly, many profitable businesses lack the funding and support needed for national and international expansion, while investors struggle to find credible ventures. The MG Business Hubs will directly address these challenges by:
●Connecting Talent to Opportunity: Providing professionals with pathways to advance their careers, both locally and internationally.
●Empowering Businesses: Offering a platform for established businesses to secure funding, mentorship, and strategic partnerships for growth.
●Facilitating Investment: Creating a transparent environment for investors to identify and engage with promising businesses and projects.
Members of these hubs will not only collaborate amongst themselves but will also gain exclusive opportunities to work directly with Meer Group on its diverse portfolio of local and international projects. The ambitious aim of each city-level business hub is singular: to generate a billion-dollar local economy, fostering a new wave of prosperity from the ground up.
Global Connectivity: E-commerce and Skilled Workforce Supply
Beyond tourism and local business development, Vision Pakistan 2030 extends its reach to global commerce and human capital. Meer Group is committed to connecting Pakistani products worldwide through robust e-commerce platforms, enabling local businesses to access international markets and consumers. This initiative will not only boost exports but also enhance the global visibility of Pakistani craftsmanship and goods.
Furthermore, recognizing the global demand for skilled healthcare professionals, Meer Group is initiating a program for the supply of highly trained nurses to Europe. This will create significant employment opportunities for Pakistani youth, contribute to foreign exchange, and further enhance Pakistan’s reputation for producing a skilled and dedicated workforce.
A Vision for a Prosperous Pakistan
Shakeel Ahmad Meer’s Vision Pakistan 2030 is more than just a series of projects; it’s a comprehensive roadmap for national rejuvenation. By strategically investing in tourism infrastructure, fostering local business ecosystems, facilitating global trade through e-commerce, and empowering its human capital, Meer Group is setting the stage for a new era of economic prosperity and a positive global image for Pakistan. This initiative underscores a deep commitment to the nation’s future, promising a brighter, more connected, and economically vibrant Pakistan by 2030.
