Binance Academy and Pakistan Partner to Launch Nationwide Blockchain Education Program

Binance Academy, the educational arm of Binance offering open-access blockchain and crypto learning resources, has partnered with Pakistan’s Ministry of IT and Telecom (MoITT) to promote blockchain education throughout the country. This joint initiative aims to equip professors and educators with blockchain knowledge, enabling them to train students at leading universities across Pakistan.

The program targets 20 universities, with a goal of training 300 educators and reaching up to 80,000 students by 2026. It is designed to build a robust talent pool capable of contributing to both Pakistan’s local tech landscape and the global blockchain ecosystem.

The partnership builds on the foundation of the Global University Outreach Program (GUOP)—the world’s largest Web3 educational initiative—launched through collaboration between Binance Academy and the Blockchain & AI Technology Center (BAITC). This global program focuses on integrating blockchain education into academic curricula while fostering talent development through open education, industry partnerships, and certifications.

“As blockchain reshapes the global financial landscape, empowering people with the right skills is essential to unlocking its potential,” said Bader Al Kalooti, MEASA Head of Growth and Operations at Binance. “Our collaboration with the Ministry of IT and Telecom in Pakistan marks a significant step toward building a knowledgeable workforce ready to drive innovation and foster growth in the digital economy. Together, we’re laying the foundation for a future where blockchain technology creates opportunities across every sector.”
