Rawalpindi, November 29, 2021 (PPI-OT):National University of Medical Sciences (NUMS) and Focus and Rulz have signed a Document of Understanding (DOU) here Wednesday which would help remove deficiency of the Private Sector in research and development to make it more competitive in the world. The DOU was inked by Vice Chancellor NUMS Lt Gen Syed Muhammad Imran Majeed (Retd) and Fazli Hanan, Chief Executive of Focus and Rulz at a simple ceremony.

Besides others Pro Vice Chancellor Administration Maj Gen Syed Ammar Reza Hamdani (Retd), Aisha Mohyuddin, Dean Faculty of Multidisciplinary Studies and Director Office of Research, Innovation and Commercialization (ORIC) Dr Awais e Siraj were present on the occasion. M/S “Focus and Rulz with the slogan “Health in Focus,” are “the first manufacturer of natural and herbal supplements in Pakistan that is dedicated to developing a full range of wellness products for multiple market segments,” said the DOU.

In his brief remarks on the occasion VC NUMS Lt Gen Syed Muhammad Imran Majeed (Retd) emphasized on the relationship between the academia and the industry, adding that NUMS had already initiated an extensive discussion in this regard. The job of the university is to carry out research and development to help the Private Sector develop some products while the later with its experience in the field can find markets for them.

“I think we will be judged by what we can do for our industry in the Private Sector. That will be the socio-economic impact of the university and a university should be judged by this way,” and not on the basis of its publications. Mr. Fazli Hanan in his remarks said NUMS was fully equipped with its scientists, state- of- the- art laboratory and financial resources to help the Private Sector in research and development as was being done by the universities across the globe.

“We lack two things in Pakistan. One is that we do not have the required resources for research and secondly, we do not have the required funds and human resources,” and this deficiency can be bridged by NUMS, said the CEO whose pharmaceutical companies are exporting medicines to 12 countries in East Europe, South Asia, West Africa and Cambodia.

The pharmaceutical companies have entered into understanding with NUMS which has the mandate to promote and achieve excellence in advanced health education, research and service delivery with an extensive network of Hospitals, Single Specialty Institutes and Medical Colleges as well as Nursing colleges.

The Future of FinTech – An opinion article by IoBM’s CTO, Dr. Imran Batada 

Karachi, November 29, 2021 (PPI-OT):FinTech – the buzzword for financial technology – has made transactions easier. It is blurring the lines between service providers, allowing bankers and tech providers to provide almost similar services. Some investors have put a large sum of money into FinTech. This is to help provide better services to Millennial customers.

Around the world, digitalisation is happening in the value chain, and automation is rapidly being used to serve customers. The use of chatbots, virtual assistants, and machine learning, instead of a live agent, is helping solve customer issues.

Some companies in the financial sector tend to rent out a chunk of their facilities to other tech companies. This enables a distribution experience that includes relevant financial functions. Some companies offer insurance for their products – for example, Tesla car insurance or financing for home improvements, etc. The beauty of FinTech is that users won’t have to go for it; instead, it will come to them. Financial infrastructure is growing at a rapid pace. However, we still need to research to ensure that there are no vulnerabilities that can affect the prosperity of businesses or the overall distribution of services and products.
