- MindHYVE.ai partners with the Institute of Contemporary Studies (ICS) and the National Excellence Institute (NEI) to integrate its ArthurAI platform into nursing education in Pakistan.
- The initiative aims to train 2,000 nursing students in the first year, expanding to 10,000 in two years, with a long-term goal of empowering 80,000 nurses nationwide.
- The AI-driven program seeks to address Pakistan’s critical nursing shortage, enhance training quality, and prepare healthcare professionals for evolving sector demands.
MindHYVE.ai has made a major leap towards revolutionizing nursing education in Pakistan by signing strategic Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with the Institute of Contemporary Studies (ICS) and the National Excellence Institute (NEI). The move is made at a juncture when Pakistan is facing a dire shortage of nursing professionals, boasting only 0.47 nurses and midwives per 1,000 people significantly less than the World Health Organization's minimum recommendation of 2.5 per 1,000. Within hospitals and clinical facilities, three nurses to every 10 patients is the optimal ratio, but most facilities have fewer, which degrades the quality of care and puts more pressure on staff.
With this collaboration, MindHYVE.ai will implement its ArthurAI platform to transform and individualize nursing education at scale. In the first year, the program will license ArthurAI to 2,000 nursing students and extend to 10,000 students in two years. In the longer term, the company wishes to empower 80,000 nurses across the country, a step touted to be a game-changer in Pakistan's healthcare worker development.
Bill Faruki, MindHYVE.ai CEO, highlighted that the partnerships with ICS and NEI are an indication of a common interest in harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to forge the future of healthcare education. "ArthurAI will empower educators and students alike to reach unprecedented heights of personalisation, efficiency, and educational achievement", he stated.

Echoing this sentiment, Mohammad Aurangzeb Nadeem, Executive Director of ICS and NEI, was also eager to spearhead the AI-led transformation of nursing education. "This collective effort will fortify our academic programs, improve student outcomes, and equip Pakistan's healthcare sector with competent nursing professionals prepared for the challenges of tomorrow", he said.
Through the inclusion of AI solutions in the curriculum, the collaboration hopes to not only fill the skills gap but also solve systemic problems in Pakistan's healthcare system. The initiative is likely to enhance the quality of training, assist educators with sophisticated teaching aids, and prepare graduates to meet the needs of a changing healthcare sector.
With the collective know-how of MindHYVE.ai, ICS, and NEI, the project is poised to introduce a new paradigm in AI-boosted healthcare education for Pakistan, where the future generation of nurses is better prepared, more effective, and capable of addressing both regional and international healthcare demands.
