Pakistani startup EMRChains, incubated at NIC Islamabad, has secured a place among the top 50 global teams at Harvard University’s HSIL Health Systems Innovation Lab Hackathon after completing Bootcamp I at Harvard University.
The recognition places the venture among a group of international teams working on healthcare and emerging technology solutions.
The startup advanced after participating in venture development sessions, innovation workshops, mentorship activities, and collaboration opportunities aimed at preparing teams for wider global impact.
The program is part of a wider effort to connect innovation, research, and entrepreneurship with international opportunities, allowing emerging ventures to compete on a global stage.
The achievement adds to the growing visibility of Pakistan’s startup ecosystem on international platforms. It also reflects the increasing ability of local founders to develop ideas and solutions that can stand alongside global competitors.

Please stop publishing insignificant news. Healthcare in Pakistan remains one of the worst in the world and beyond the reach of the common man. Any such development makes no sense and is not going to change the scenario in the health sector of the country.

Good effort. I worked for a Tele medicine company as a CTO. It takes lot of effort to build such apps and then self promote to win awards
Our health system is under rated. The only problem is high population. Having lived in England, I can say appointments are timely and economical.
