FINOMENA co-organized the Techbridge Hackathon in Jordan, bringing together young innovators from Palestinian and Jordanian universities to develop solutions to real-world challenges.
Held in Amman last month, the hackathon saw multidisciplinary teams work on challenges spanning emergency response, agriculture, education, healthcare and community development. Participants brainstormed ideas, built prototypes and strengthened their technical, entrepreneurial and collaboration skills.
The initiative was organized with Microsoft and Luminus Technical University College. Microsoft mentors coached teams throughout the event, while Luminus provided the venue and supported the learning and collaboration environment, according to FINOMENA.
The organization said the hackathon demonstrated the value of giving young innovators the opportunity, support and environment to turn ideas into action. It also helped participants build professional connections across borders.
FINOMENA said it remains focused on creating opportunities for young innovators and supporting regional collaboration around technology, entrepreneurship and future skills.
