To strengthen innovation in Pakistan’s clean energy landscape, top leadership from the Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL), including MD/CEO Mr. Ahmed Hayat Lak and Chairman of the Board Mr. Zafar Masud, visited the Clean-Energy and Energy-Tech Incubation Zone at the LUMS Centre for Entrepreneurship (LCE).
The visit focused on reviewing progress and outcomes from the incubation zone, which was established with support from OGDCL’s endowment fund.
Fostering Youth Innovation in Clean and Energy Technologies
This dedicated incubation zone at LCE provides young entrepreneurs and innovators with a platform to develop clean-tech and energy-tech solutions that directly contribute to Pakistan’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
By providing mentorship, resources, and access to industry insights, the program empowers the next generation of changemakers to build startups that address real-world environmental and energy challenges.
A Strategic Partnership for a Sustainable Future
The initiative is more than just a technology incubator—it’s a strategic partnership between OGDCL and LUMS designed to:
Accelerate clean energy innovation
Build capacity among Pakistan’s youth
Promote a sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystem
Contribute to ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals
This collaboration is a clear reflection of OGDCL’s evolving role—from a traditional energy company to a champion of technological transformation and green innovation.
OGDCL: Investing in the Future of Energy
Through this incubation zone, OGDCL continues to invest in the future of energy and entrepreneurship in Pakistan, reinforcing its dedication to corporate responsibility, innovation, and long-term sustainability.
With a growing number of startups tackling key challenges in clean energy, climate resilience, and smart technologies, this initiative is poised to become a national model for tech-driven sustainability.
