DynaSys Networks (DynaSys), Pakistan’s leading LPWAN IoT network operator and developer of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence for IoT (AIoT) solutions, has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (SEECS) at National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Pakistan’s leading engineering and technology university, to drive collaborative research, technology development, and commercialization of practical IoT solutions.
The partnership represents a national initiative to strengthen Pakistan’s digital ecosystem, accelerate indigenous innovation, and build technological capacity across sectors critical to the country’s growth. The collaboration will focus on priority technology areas, including digital health and medical monitoring, environmental and climate resilient sensing, and energy efficiency solutions bringing together SEECS’ multidisciplinary expertise in Artificial Intelligence, Industrial IoT, Embedded Systems, and Digital Trust with DynaSys Networks’ industrial capabilities in IoT.
DynaSys’ full IoT ecosystem spanning hardware, firmware, middleware, integration capacity and network will be the bulwark giving researchers a practical platform to turn ideas into market-ready deployments.
Ali Akhtar, CEO of DynaSys Networks said: ” At DynaSys Networks, we believe that innovation delivers its greatest impact when industry and academia work together. Our collaboration with NUST represents a shared commitment to developing practical IoT solutions that address Pakistan’s most pressing challenges, from smart cities and water management to agriculture, energy, and industrial digitalization. By combining NUST’s world-class research capabilities with DynaSys Networks’ expertise in deploying real-world IoT technologies, we aim to accelerate innovation that creates measurable value for communities, businesses, and the nation.”
Dr. Rizwan Riaz, Pro-Rector RIC at NUST, said: ” Universities have a responsibility not only to advance knowledge but also to ensure that research creates meaningful impact for society. This partnership with DynaSys Networks represents an important step in bridging the gap between academic research and real-world implementation. By working closely with industry, our faculty, researchers, and students will have the opportunity to tackle practical challenges through cutting-edge IoT technologies, while contributing to solutions that support Pakistan’s digital transformation. We look forward to building an ecosystem where innovation, entrepreneurship, and technical excellence come together to create lasting national value.”
The MoU also places strong emphasis on capacity building. DynaSys will support students through semester projects, final year projects, MS/PhD research, and internships, while both organizations will jointly pursue national and international funding to help scale promising IoT innovations from prototype to nationwide deployment.
The MoU was signed on behalf of NUST by Dr. Muhammad Ajmal Khan, Principal & Dean, SEECS, in the presence of Dr. Rizwan Riaz, Pro-Rector Research, Innovation & Commercialization (RIC), NUST. DynaSys Networks (Pvt.) Ltd. was led by its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ali Akhtar. NUST’s efforts in to establish this collaboration are spearheaded by Dr. Tauseef ur Rehman, Director, NUST IoT Lab & Smart Greenhouse Living Lab, leading NUST’s applied research initiatives in AI-enabled Industrial IoT and Smart Agriculture domains.
