Pakistan Prosperity Forum,

About the event

The Pakistan Prosperity Forum is the flagship economic policy forum hosted by PRIME in November of each year. It brings together a wide range of stakeholders, including policymakers, economists, and business leaders, to discuss solutions for sustainable growth and prosperity.

The government of Pakistan in recent years has dedicated its attention to enforcement, instead of working out ways to improve the tax policy. This year’s theme, “Tax Policy for Growth”, our focus will be on the tax regime where we see opportunities for reform and improvement.

To speak on these issues, PRIME has invited Mr. Aleksi Aleksishvili, the former Finance Minister of Georgia, who was the architect of far-reaching tax reforms, and Supply-side Economist Rizwan Rawji. PRIME in collaboration with Federal Government think tank, PIDE (Pakistan Institute of Development Economics) will also be presenting a tax reform proposal as an alternate to the existing tax regime.

Why should you sponsor?

PRIME works with partners in the business and corporate sectors to organize and manage the prosperity forum. Our partners work with us to cover the costs of travelling and lodging the speakers at the forum, and to cover the cost of hosting the 100-plus multi-stakeholder audience for lunch at a tier-1 hotel in Islamabad. This year, the forum will be held at the Mariott in Islamabad on the 14^th of November 2024.

Sponsors would work with us in order to influence policy, and gain an audience with the government.

Our Mission is to increase understanding of public policy based on these principles. We are fiercely independent, and non-partisan, with distinguished scholars from across Pakistan.

PRIME has entered a new phase in its journey in 2020 while Pakistan’s economy is passing through another transition. While some macroeconomic indicators are improving, and stabilization is visible, there is a consensus that sustainable economic growth can only be achieved by addressing structural and governance issues. We believe that the central thread in resolving this puzzle lies in creation of competitive markets.

We are committed to play our role as a think tank, as a coalition-builder, and as a catalyst for economic development. Our strategy combines research, public education, online talk shows, coalition building, advocacy and lobbying.

 

Our funders are successful entrepreneurs and business owners in Pakistan and
overseas Pakistanis who are sympathetic to our vision and objectives. We also conduct special projects, training workshops and educational courses.

As a step towards coalition-building, we have launched Taxpayers Alliance Pakistan, which has 117 members drawing from business, academia and various professions.
