A high-level 42-member Pakistani academic delegation will attend the three-day Eurasia Higher Education Summit (EURIE) 2026 in Istanbul, Türkiye from 7–9 April 2026, presenting a dedicated Pakistan Pavilion to highlight the country’s higher education potential, research excellence and innovation ecosystem.
The delegation, led by Prof. Dr. Chaudhry Abdul Rehman, brings together representatives from major Pakistani universities including Superior University, University of Lahore, University of Faisalabad, University of Sialkot, Lahore Leads University, Iqra University, Riphah International University, Preston University, City University, CECOS University, Institute of Business Management (IoBM) and GIFT University. Key organisations such as OIC-COMSTECH and the Sindh Higher Education Commission are participating alongside Bahria University and the University of South Asia, strengthening the delegation’s policy and outreach capacity.
The Pakistan Pavilion will act as an active platform to promote academic collaborations, attract international partnerships and showcase joint research opportunities. Delegation members are scheduled for a series of academic meetings, collaboration discussions and MoU signings, as well as visits to leading universities in Türkiye and receptions hosted by the Chairman of APSUP and EURIE organisers.
By using the Pakistan Pavilion to connect with global institutions, the delegation aims to expand student exchange programmes, deepen research linkages and accelerate innovation collaborations, reinforcing Pakistan’s growing presence in the international higher education landscape.
