Embracing the journey ahead

The incubation journey at NIC Karachi, managed by LMKT in partnership with Lucky Landmark Pvt. Ltd. and supported by Ignite – National Technology Fund, is a transformative experience. During Cohort 15 we learned that building a tech-driven venture takes resilience, strategic agility and a strong support network.

With Orbit Ventures onboard as the international acceleration partner for Cohort 16, you have an incredible platform to scale your solutions, refine your business models and expand your reach globally.

Why security and compliance matter from day one

Whether you operate in AI, FinTech, EdTech or enterprise SaaS, building security and regulatory foundations early is critical. Scaling fast is exciting, but protecting user data and maintaining regulatory trust is what keeps a startup viable and investor-ready.

At ComplyEncrypt we build AI-assisted governance, risk and compliance (GRC) automation. We understand the friction startups face when trying to meet standards like ISO 27001 and GDPR while still shipping code quickly.
