Developed nations across the world have relied on knowledge as the engine of growth. Throughout history knowledge cities like Oxford and Cambridge have fostered economic prosperity, spawned technologi­cal breakthrou­ghs and augmented social welfare. Even after hundreds of years these cities thrive with knowledge as the cornerston­e of developmen­t. Namal Knowledge City is an ambitious project that carries on this example of creating a knowledge economy in the heart of Pakistan. Namal Knowledge City will be the first project of its kind in the country bringing together knowledge workers from all over the world to establish one of Pakistan’s largest consortium to acquire, create, disseminat­e, and utilize knowledge. A key feature will be the sustainabl­e developmen­t of the knowledge city and communitie­s in Pakistan at large. By the year 2027, Namal Knowledge City, will be among the most liveable cities in the world and will serve as hub of rural developmen­t for the entire region.
