Aqeel Karim Dhedhi- The Ultimate Trendsetter

The world is full of people who are good at obeying the orders and following directions given by others. It takes nothing to follow the mob yet everything to go against it and only a few people are brave enough to do that. Only a few people have the courage and wisdom to make their own path and initiate things. We call these people the trendsetters. Unfortunately, in our country, there are not much of them. We are slowly becoming the nation which is only known to be influenced and follow but not to be influential and lead.

Thankfully, we still have some people like Aqeel Karim Dhedhi who are the ultimate trendsetters in the society. From business to social life aspects, we always see Mr. Dhedhi leading the way with his fearless approach to trying new things and courage to take risks

We all know he is the king of the stock market and leads AKD group, one of the top business organization in the country but there is so much more to it. He is a one-man army with a bit of everything on his hands from stock trading to security agency, real estate and much more. Aqeel Dhedhi never backs up from doing something new in which he sees potential to flourish. This is why he is considered to be a true believer of youth empowerment.

When we take a look at his business profile, we see a lot of diversity and variety in the projects he invests in. The AKD investment management limited have always projects lined up which are totally different from each other but are surely fruitful and revolution.

The biggest example of this is his investment in TMT Venture media group to make the first animated advertisement series to market a soup. That’s right we are talking about the famous ‘Commander Safeguard’ animated series. Although Mr.Dhedhi has no past record to be involved in media in any way. Yet when he saw something which was a fresh idea and has the potential to be executed, he immediately agreed to invest.

Other than that Dhedhi also set up Pakistan’s first outbound call center where the company focused mostly on long distance and international calls. It was a success in a way that he offered less than three times rates which were offered by his competitors.

Aqeel Karim Dhedhi has also set up a Security Company known as AKD Securities which was the first of its kind in the country. As expected, Dhedhi left his mark in the security business also by setting up the first institutionalized technology venture in the year of 2000.

Today, in the corporate world if someone can inspire businessman to take risks and set the trends, then it can be only Aqeel Karim Dhedhi. His guts to be initiative and manage the risk factor is the secret behind his infinite success in the world of business.
