Symmetry Group Limited has announced a major expansion initiative, approving an investment plan worth up to Rs1.25 billion aimed at acquiring a US-based technology company and investing in a local artificial intelligence and data-driven firm.
In a notification to the Pakistan Stock Exchange, the company outlined that the substantial funding will be allocated toward business expansion, technology infrastructure upgrades, operational growth, and working capital requirements.
This strategic move represents a significant step in Symmetry’s efforts to enhance its digital and media ecosystem capabilities.
The dual-pronged investment strategy reflects the company’s commitment to both international expansion and domestic technological advancement. By acquiring a US-based tech firm, Symmetry aims to gain access to advanced technologies, expertise, and potentially new markets.
Meanwhile, the investment in a local AI-driven company demonstrates confidence in Pakistan’s growing technology sector and positions the group to leverage data analytics and artificial intelligence to gain a competitive advantage.
According to the company’s statement, these investments are designed to strengthen long-term profitability and support sustainable growth. The integration of advanced technologies is expected to enhance operational efficiency and create new revenue streams for the diversified group.
While Symmetry has not yet disclosed the identities of the target companies or specific timelines for completion, the announcement has generated interest among market observers.
Industry analysts view this as part of a broader trend of Pakistani corporations investing in technology to remain competitive in an increasingly digital economy.
The company has indicated that further details regarding the acquisitions and investment structure will be shared in the coming weeks as due diligence processes advance and agreements are finalized.
