Evidence snapshot for Lahore

National Incubation Center (NIC) Lahore reports incubating 350+ startups since its December 2017 launch at LUMS, with the portfolio raising approximately Rs5 billion (~US$18 million) and generating around Rs1 billion in revenue, though these are organizational self-reports without independent impact evaluation. The centre incubates roughly 50 startups and accelerates around 10 per year, with about 25% women-led. Plan9, another government-backed incubator based at Arfa Software Technology Park in Lahore, reported graduating 160 startups with a combined valuation of roughly US$70 million, though independent reporting indicates nationwide startup failure rates of 60-80% within three years, pointing to weak product-market fit and thin follow-on capital as main causes.
