The Punjabi government has officially launched a brand-new, separate web 3.0 portal named Punjab 3.0. The portal is intended to help web 3.0 contributors like as academics, IT professionals, and even overseas corporations involved in web 3.0-related projects.
The portal will be Pakistan’s first big step toward web 3.0 technology, gathering valuable feedback from web 3.0 contributors in Pakistan and around the world.
Before carrying out a successful launch, Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Chaudhry Parvez Elahi met with the powerful committee he created in the past. During the discussion, IT professionals and the Chief Minister of Punjab discussed the national adoption of Web 3.0.
Other top government officials who attended the conference at Arfa Software Technology Park (ASTP) included Punjab IT Minister Dr. Arslan Khalid and Punjab Finance Minister Mohsin Leghari.
Along with government leaders, the meeting was attended by several CEOs from the business sector as well as executives from government institutions such as SBP, NBP, BOP, FBR, and SECP.
IT Minister Dr. Arslan Khalid stated at the meeting that the province’s adoption of Web 3.0 will facilitate more interactivity between different users and websites, allowing them to access content from multiple sources at the same time, without having to leave the website they are browsing at any point in time.
According to Mohsin Leghari, the finance minister, successful implementation of web 3.0 in the country will boost economic growth and GDP.
The meeting’s co-attendee and PIBT Chairman made some optimistic remarks on web 3.0 and blockchain technology. Thanks to Web 3.0, PITB will be able to acquire lounges in the Metaverse to hold meetings and execute contracts. Citizens would be able to communicate with the government via Metaverse, he explained.
The Punjab government’s current web 3.0 portal focuses on four primary areas: web 3.0 governance, web 3.0 R&D and commercialization, talent pool development, and a policy/regulatory framework.
