Dubai-based Iqbal is in fact the second Pakistani to hold the title of youngest Microsoft-certified professional in the world — a qualification he received at the age of nine. He went on to win four more specialist certifications by the age of 12, breaking three world records along the way. Leading Fortune 500 corporations have come knocking on his door trying to snap up his services, and he has been recognised by the Pakistani government several times for his feats. Awards and accolades aside, this teenage tech prodigy runs a website that disseminates the tools of the trade to whoever wants to learn. He is an example one hopes would inspire many.
