NIBAF Pakistan is set to conduct a specialized executive masterclass focused on artificial intelligence transformation for banking and corporate professionals at its Karachi Campus on October 16, 2026. The one-day programme is designed to provide professionals with an opportunity to understand the use of artificial intelligence in modern workplace environments, particularly across banking and corporate functions where digital tools, automation and data-driven processes are becoming increasingly important.
The masterclass, titled “AI Transformation for Banking and Corporate Professionals,” will run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the NIBAF Pakistan Karachi Campus. The training investment has been set at PKR 18,000 plus applicable tax per participant. The programme is positioned as an executive-level learning opportunity for professionals seeking to develop their understanding of artificial intelligence and its practical applications within professional and organisational settings.
The session will be facilitated by Irfan Bakaly, a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) and technology trainer with more than two decades of experience in technology training. Bakaly is also recognised as the recipient of Pakistan’s first Microsoft MVP award in the Excel category. His professional background includes technology education and corporate training across leading institutions, with a focus on areas including advanced analytics, automation and productivity technologies.
Alongside his training work, Bakaly is known as a corporate educator and YouTuber under the name “Irfan Wazir Ali.” He has authored more than 525 technical video tutorials covering advanced analytics, automation and artificial intelligence productivity tools. His experience in these areas is expected to form an important part of the masterclass as participants explore how AI-based tools can be incorporated into professional workflows and business activities.
The growing use of artificial intelligence across financial institutions and businesses is creating demand for professionals who can understand both the technology and its practical workplace applications. Banking organisations in particular are increasingly using digital technologies for data analysis, automation, customer services, risk management and operational processes. Executive learning programmes focused on AI can therefore provide professionals with an opportunity to build relevant skills while understanding how emerging tools can support organisational productivity.
NIBAF Pakistan has set October 15, 2026, as the last date for nominations for the masterclass. Interested organisations and professionals can register by contacting NIBAF Pakistan through its designated registration and marketing channels.

The programme comes as artificial intelligence continues to become part of professional training and business operations, with banking and corporate employees increasingly expected to understand emerging digital tools. Through the October 16 session, NIBAF Pakistan aims to provide participants with focused executive-level exposure to AI transformation and its relevance to modern professional environments.
