Considering the success of the programming events and growth of IT industry in Pakistan, in 2000 GIKI's ACM-GIKI Chapter society started hosting an All Pakistan SOFTCOM. In the spring of 2000, SOFTCOM was the biggest IT event of Pakistan. It was a big milestone in Pakistan's IT history as an event of this genre at this large scale was inconceivable before it. Since then there was no turning back. The following years after its establishment ACM-GIK organized numerous intra GIK and All Pakistan IT events attended by IT gurus and IT ministers. ACM GIK also collaborated with various multi-national companies and research and development organizations. ACM-GIK then moved on to bridging the gap between industry and students and collaborated with various software houses for the purpose.
