LAHORE: Pakistani student Muhammad Ayan Abdullah has been selected to represent the country at the prestigious International Olympiad in Artificial Intelligence (IOAI), which will be held in Beijing, China from August 2 to 9, 2025.
As the nation cheers for this bright young mind, Viper Technology, Pakistan’s leading IT hardware manufacturer, has extended full support to enable his participation. In collaboration with the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB), Viper has proudly provided its flagship “PLUTO Al PC” – a locally assembled, high-performance computer designed specifically for Al and machine learning workloads.
This initiative is part of Viper Technology’s mission to empower Pakistani youth with cutting-edge tools and promote ‘Made In Pakistan’ innovation in global competitions. The PLUTO Al PC provided to Ayan is part of Viper’s newest Al PC line – built in Pakistan, built for performance, and now headed to Beijing.
Speaking on the occasion, Faisal Sheikh, Co-Founder & COO, Viper Technology (Pvt) Ltd., said,
“We are honored to support Muhammad Ayan Abdullah. Pakistan has immense talent, and it’s our responsibility to back the next generation of tech leaders.”
This gesture reflects a powerful partnership between local industry, government support organizations, and national pride – coming together to uplift the future of Al in Pakistan.
Viper Group – through its hardware wing Viper Technology and its software, automation, and skill training arm Viper Technology – has been serving Pakistan for over 30 years. From assembling desktops, laptops, Al PCs, and tablets to offering software solutions and digital upskilling via Viper Academy, the group is committed to building a tech-powered, self-reliant Pakistan. With manufacturing roots in Karachi and expansion plans in Punjab, Viper stands firmly behind the “Made in Pakistan” vision.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to PITB for championing local innovation and giving a deserving student a chance to compete on the world stage. We hope PITB will continue to support such national initiatives that uplift Pakistani products, empower youth, and showcase Pakistan’s true potential to the world.
