In particular, FBL would make the Digital Freelancer Account available to both current and future graduates of PITB. In addition, FBL would finance a variety of activities conducted by PITB that are relevant to digital technology, youth empowerment, and the ecosystem of freelancing. As a gesture of appreciation for newly emerging freelancers, FBL will provide laptops to the top performance of each batch, as well as mobile phones to the second and third top performers of each batch. This is in addition to many other advantages. In addition, FBL would market PITB and grant partner privileges to the organisation because of the enormous network of freelancers that the organisation has across Pakistan (alumni and trainees).

PITB is committed, through a variety of initiatives, to meeting the needs of freelancers located throughout Punjab by providing them with employment possibilities and teaching them digital skills. Throughout the course of the past year, PITB has broadened its scope of support by engaging in activities that benefit budding entrepreneurs and freelancers originating from a variety of different social backgrounds. Both men and women are receiving the same training to become economically independent through the PITB’s freelancing efforts, which are catering to both genders.
