Vision, Mission & Objectives of BIZTEK
In the new millennium, the trend of global village is changing. Nations are focusing more on
peaceful quality living as compared to accumulating warheads. Few exceptions may be there, but
they are few. The power is getting transferred from G7 to E7 (The Economic Seven) and China
is leading the fast emerging economic block. At this stage, we need to ensure that Pakistan
matches the present pace to be amongst rising nations of this century. We are convinced that we
owe our sincerity and commitment to this nation, country and to the community we live in. We
are also convinced that once we are able to develop this, we may be able to achieve things
surpassing all previous glories of the history. What we desperately need in this regard is the trust
and confidence of concerned quarters and a willingness to become a part of a team in affairs
where worthwhile contribution can be made.
