History
We began our story in 1993. Back then we were a single person sitting at a single desk. Today, we are a software development company that serves hundreds of customers every day with the help of 450+ engineers.
The founder of Nextbridge, Mubashir Mian, started this software house as a one-man job. He came up with the idea of assembling a team of excellent engineers who would share a common goal — to offer clients the best possible solutions. As a result, the software development company was established as Nextbridge Ltd. in Lahore, Pakistan.
Throughout the history of Nextbridge, we have worked with innumerable technologies. With 29 year-long experience in managing software, we possess an in-depth understanding of every aspect of the software development lifecycle. We know the A’s and R’s of software development.

Company Initiatives
Our people are our assets. Already, the company has initiatives that promote health, work-life balance, kindness, and gratitude. But here’s how we contribute to the economy and give back to the community:
Open-house Workshops
We conduct workshops to discuss specific technical concepts, share informational content, and answer any queries in the end. Special meet-ups are organized to help developers and engineers stay informed and up-to-date on latest industry trends and best practices.
Go Green Initiative
We, as a software house want to reduce our carbon footprint. This is why we have installed solar panels in all our centers to reduce energy consumption. We have embraced the principles of environmental sustainability and are now less reliant on the power grid.
Plant for a Better Tomorrow
We have taken a small step towards nurturing the environment by initiating a ‘Stand for Trees’ campaign — a tree plantation drive to enhance the beauty and balance of our environment. So we planted trees in all our centers and expect to continue this ritual in the future as well. We also distributed over 400 shrubs to our employees, countrywide.
