Sualeh Asif, a 26-year-old Pakistani from Karachi, has become a billionaire after his AI coding startup Cursor reached a $29.3 billion valuation.

A former math Olympiad participant who studied at MIT, he is now Chief Product Officer at Anysphere, the company behind Cursor. The AI-powered coding platform is widely used by global tech firms and has seen rapid growth in users and revenue.

Backed by major investors like OpenAI Fund, Andreessen Horowitz, and Google, the startup highlights Pakistan’s tech talent potential while also reflecting concerns about brain drain as top innovators build success abroad.
