QU Students Win First Place at the AIX Summit Hackathon!

A talented team of Qatar University students, including two from our CSE department, has proudly won first place at the AIX Summit Hackathon, organized by Risin Ventures and sponsored by Ooredoo and Qatar Development Bank (QDB). The event was held at the Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP) and brought together top innovators to develop AI-driven solutions to real-world challenges.

The winning team, including Ahmed Khedr Elsheshtawy (First-Year Computer Science), Saalim Adesina (First-Year Computer Science), and Zaid Abubaker Al Samarie (Second-Year Medicine), developed an AI-powered application that automates the generation of due diligence reports for startups. The tool assesses the investment potential of emerging businesses by integrating modern web frameworks such as React and leveraging large language models (LLMs) like Google Gemini to analyze key financial and operational data.

This innovation aims to make investment analysis faster and more reliable, supporting investors and analysts in making data-driven decisions.

Congratulations to the team for representing Qatar University with excellence and innovation! 👏🎓
