Astrik has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Denning Institute of Technology & Entrepreneurship (DITE) to establish a framework for university–industry collaboration, creating opportunities for students and graduates to engage with the professional sector and explore potential career pathways.

The agreement focuses on facilitating internship opportunities across technology, marketing, business, brand building, creative disciplines, and digital media. It also provides a basis for campus engagement sessions, career guidance, and direct interaction with industry professionals, helping participants gain a clearer understanding of workplace expectations and emerging professional requirements.

The MoU was signed by Mr. Rizwan Shah, Business Unit Head at Astrik, and Ms. Tehseen Azhar, Head of Career, Alumni and Corporate Liaison at Denning, with Ms. Joann Rodrigues, Assistant Manager, Career and Corporate Liaison at Denning, and Mr. Saad Shaikh, Head of People & Culture at Astrik, participating as witnesses.

As part of the proposed collaboration, Astrik professionals may participate in guest talks, workshops, and mentorship sessions, while selected students and representatives may have the opportunity to visit Astrik’s offices. These engagements are intended to provide firsthand exposure to organizational operations, professional practices, and the application of industry knowledge.

The agreement aligns with Astrik’s broader approach to workforce development and institutional engagement. With over 1,000 professionals and a strategic roadmap to expand to 2,000 across Pakistan, the company continues to build relationships with academic institutions that support the development of emerging talent.

Through this MoU, Astrik and Denning seek to establish a sustained relationship that connects academic institutions with the professional sector, contributing to a more informed, skilled, and industry-ready generation of graduates.
