1. Please, tell us a bit about yourself: where are you from and what is your background?

My name is Muhammad Saqib Rasheed and I'm from Pakistan. I've done my bachelors in Marketing and Finance from Pakistan's top business university, Lahore School of Economics.
In the start of 2017, on the basis of my community service projects, I was also selected as a Cultural Ambassador of Pakistan to the USA for 5 months.

2. Can you describe your idea or project in two sentences?

My idea is to enhance communication between the person who needs blood and the person who is capable of giving it.
This blood donation application will also provide an easy, accessible and quick way of finding the blood no matter the geographical location.

3. How did you get your idea or concept?

When I read about the fact that thousands of people in Pakistan die every year due to unavailability of blood; Every day I got tons of messages from my friends, relatives that someone that they know needs blood of this special blood group. After spending day and night thinking, I finally came up with this idea.

4. What is unique about your idea/project and how does it benefit mankind?

It will save thousands of lives every year. It can be customized and has the potential of expanding into Pakistans biggest blood bank. There's much more to it but every single life this application saves makes it unique in every way.

5. Describe yourself as an entrepreneur in one sentence

I'm a common man who had the courage to be part of something bigger than himself.

6. How do you deal with people that doubt your abilities/initiatives?

Work in silence and let your success make the noise :)

7. Where does your passion lie?

My passion is to give people reasons to smile. I do it in all ways possible. Spending time with the people who live in solitary, eating with people who have no access to food and providing medical facilities to people who have no access to it.

 8. What are you afraid of or what keeps you up at night?

Bunch of ideas jumbled in mind about how can I help more and more people.

Lust

  1. Corruption
  2. Injustice
  3. Hatred
