History

In 2001, Inbox started as the first local assembler of computers in Pakistan by Ghias Khan, Muhammad Ali, and Mir Nasir.[8]. In 2004, a significant stake (approximately 51%) was acquired by Hussain Dawood and is since then associated with the Dawood Hercules Corporation, one of the largest conglomerates in Pakistan.[16] Following the acquisition, Inbox transitioned from assembling computers to providing system integration services with new offerings of managed services infrastructure, digital services, customized processes, and technology alliances.[17] In 2019, Dawood acquired 100% of Inbox's shares.[18]

The company since then has domestically partnered with global companies like Huawei, Oracle, and Microsoft.[19] The company is expanding presence in Saudi Arabia through partnerships.[20]

Inbox deployed a technical facility on internet gateways nationwide, to curb illegal international traffic, to strengthen the regulator to enforce OTT regulatory framework, and to provide basis for national cyber security and content filtering.[21]
