Adopted July 2026Vision 2031 & Strategy
Six years to turn SIA from a set of projects into a platform that every changemaker in Pakistan’s frontier regions can find, use and grow with.
SIA’s Strategic Plan 2026–2031 turns the organisation into a platform: a staged enterprise pathway, an accredited academy, a national network, a capital facility and a policy voice.
It replaces four delivery pillars with five strategic pillars and one continuum: Ideate, Incubate, Accelerate, Invest and Alumni for Life.
For years SIA’s work was described through its past projects. That proved credibility, but it did not tell a woman in Khuzdar or a student in Loralai what to do next. The plan answers that question: wherever you start, there is a next step, and this website shows it.

What the plan builds
Each part has its place on this website already. Until a new vehicle opens, its page lets you register interest.

Why earned income matters
Today, less than a tenth of SIA’s income comes from work it sells. The plan aims for 40% by 2031, through course fees, consultancy for government and organisations, Summit sponsorship and SENPak membership.
Earned income keeps programmes running between grants, and lets SIA say yes to communities that no funder has reached yet. Grants and partnerships still matter: they fund the free and subsidised places that most participants need.
Where earned income will come from
- Course fees through the Academy and the Digital Campus
- Training and design work for organisations and government
- Sponsorship of the SIA Summit
- SENPak membership
Questions
About the plan
Do SIA’s current programmes continue?
Yes. They move into the Pathway. The Women Entrepreneurship Development Program, for example, now anchors the Women-led enterprise track, and microenterprise training feeds the Ideate stage.
How will I know whether the plan is on track?
Every headline figure has one value, a definition, a source and a date, updated each quarter on the Live Impact Dashboard. An annual impact report is published from the first year of the plan.
How can my organisation take part?
Co-design or fund a programme or cohort, sponsor the SIA Summit, commission training for your team, work with the Government Innovation Lab, or co-invest through the Catalyst Fund. Book a 20-minute call on the Partner With Us page.
