Srinagar, June 18: Zaffar Owais Andrabi, CEO of Almuqeet Systems, has earned a place among the Top 10 leaders recognized in ROCCO Research’s Above and Beyond Awards, earning global recognition for Kashmir on the international telecom stage.
In an industry defined by relentless change, infrastructure complexity, and constant pressure to deliver at scale, such recognition reflects not only achievement, but sustained relevance and impact.
ROCCO Research is an international telecom research organisation , which are closely followed by mobile operators, vendors, and decision-makers worldwide.
Its awards are valued because they highlight individuals whose work has contributed meaningfully to the sector’s progress.
For Andrabi, the recognition underscores a career shaped by focus, persistence, and technical depth. But beyond his personal achievements, what matters most to Kashmir is what Almuqeet Systems has represented over the years: a platform that has built opportunity, skills, and pride for Kashmiri youth.
Through Almuqeet Systems, Andrabi has helped create a pathway for young Kashmiris to enter the global technology and telecom industry.
The company has invested in skills building, training, and real-world project experience, enabling local talent to develop capabilities in areas such as systems development, network infrastructure, security, and enterprise solutions. In a region where opportunities can be limited, this has been a meaningful contribution to the future of Kashmir’s youth.
The company has also opened doors for Kashmiri professionals to work on international projects, collaborate with global partners, and build a reputation beyond the region. In doing so, Almuqeet Systems has quietly become a model for what local entrepreneurship can achieve when it is driven by vision, technical excellence, and a commitment to the community.
“This recognition means a great deal to me,” Andrabi said. “It is a reminder that perseverance, vision, and commitment do matter.”
The recognition also reinforces Almuqeet Systems’ impact beyond business. It is a signal that Kashmir can produce leaders who operate at the global level and contribute meaningfully to high-technology industries. In that sense, the award is not just a personal milestone; it is also a marker of Kashmir’s growing presence in the global technology and telecom ecosystem.
ROCCO’s Top 10 recognition remains an important benchmark in telecom because it celebrates those who have made a tangible difference in the industry’s evolution. For Andrabi, being named among that group is both an honor and a statement of the work still ahead.
Kashmir now has another reason to celebrate, as one of its own leaders has been recognized for excellence at the global level, while continuing to build opportunity, skills, and pride for the next generation.
