Mr. Ahmad as co-founder and Chairman of CodersTrust, an organization whose aim is to educate and create digital jobs for marginalized groups to increase their economic independence is the perfect example of the validity of those words.

"The youth, especially the female community, who struggle to find a comfortable living, is our prime concern," according to Mr. Ahmad, "the vision of CodersTrust is to provide technical and soft-skill training for students/trainees in the global south and emerging markets. We believe, if we can facilitate the right tools for teaching skills that are out of their reach, they will have an opportunity and a real chance to join the global workforce. Our primary focus is on a sustainable, technology-based training platform." Mr. Ahmad states that more than 60,000 students so far have gone through CodersTrust.

Mr. Ahmad has shared his commitment and expertise around the world. At the Vatican Conference sponsored by Pope Francis, where he was invited to present.
