15 big challenges, 15 big opportunities
Great questions by Shahjahan Chaudhary
NIC Karachi is a pro-innovation knowledge hub. We see startups as research teams focused on solving big problems and pursuing opportunities at scale.
We like to start with questions. Here are some questions and challenges you should consider working on.
1. How to build a 1000 sq ft house for Rs 350 per square foot?
2. How to offer near-free public transport to all 20 million citizens of Karachi?
3. How to offer electricity to citizens of Karachi for Rs 1 per unit?
4. How to convert Karachi slums, where over 50% of the population lives, into happy, clean, liveable spaces where even our Prime Minister would like to stay?
5. How can a startup lift 1 million people into prosperity? How about 10 million?
6. How can we nurture a measurable growth mindset in the 40 million children going to public schools with a total budget of $250,000?
7. How can we "follow the money" in federal and provincial governments using Blockchain and make governance more transparent and effective?
8. How can we save and enhance the mangrove forests profitably for the City of Karachi?
9. How can we create Cyberdefence to reduce our need for conventional and nuclear weapons?
10. How can we measure and improve health outcomes for all of Pakistans citizens - increase lifespan, reduce infant mortality, become less prone to getting sick?
11. How can we promote Sindhs Heritage and History and make it a top travel destination for the world?
12. How can Pakistan Railways leverage technology to become the backbone of Pakistans transport ecosystem? How can we creatively fund a 100x capacity increase in Railways?
13. How can we build a robot that cleans public streets continuously at close to zero cost?
14. If we were to give up roads and cars, what could replace them that costs less and enhances universal well-being?
15. If you think there is a question or opportunity more interesting and challenging than the above, what is it and how would you tackle it?
