Islamabad, Aug 7, 2025: Pakistan’s fast-developing mobile gaming and software creation field has received a major boost internationally. Fasieh Mehta, a respected voice in the country’s digital scene and a long-time supporter of local creators, has officially joined Google as the Industry Lead for Mobile Apps & Gaming – Pakistan.
He will be based in Singapore at Google’s Asia-Pacific headquarters. Prior to this, Mehta held a position at Epic Games, where he represented Pakistan and helped promote the national gaming landscape beyond borders.
This development marks a growing global appreciation for Pakistan’s digital talent. Over recent years, creators from the country have launched a number of standout apps and popular games, drawing attention from leading global tech firms. Mehta’s appointment is more than personal recognition—it reflects Pakistan’s rising presence in the worldwide digital economy.
A source familiar with the recruitment said the role went through a competitive ten-month selection process, open to public applicants. Google followed its usual, strict hiring approach, including multiple evaluation rounds. Their goal was clear: to find someone who can drive Pakistan’s app and gaming space forward.

He also spoke fondly of previous visits to Google offices in cities like London and Dubai—always as a visitor, never as a team member. That changed this week.
Mehta’s message to Pakistan’s tech professionals is simple: his door is open for ideas, partnerships, and growth. For the country, this step signals something bigger—Pakistani talent is no longer just participating in tech, it’s helping shape it.
