Kuwait Financial Centre “Markaz” concluded its sponsorship of the Australian University’s Engineering Students’ Projects Exhibition, held in May. The sponsorship falls in line with the ‘human capacity building’ pillar of Markaz’s CSR strategy. Through such initiatives, Markaz seeks to support the next generation and provide them with opportunities to excel in their chosen fields.
The exhibition featured a total of 56 student projects completed by 250 students from various engineering disciplines, including Civil Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Petroleum Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. These projects were particularly noteworthy for their ingenious exploration of renewable and sustainable energy, AI, cyber security, and smart technologies, among others. The projects underwent evaluation by faculty members, external entities, and industrial companies. The best projects were carefully chosen to stimulate competition and foster innovation.
Markaz was honored during a ceremony held after the conclusion of the exhibition, in recognition of its invaluable support, and the pivotal role the company played in ensuring the exhibition's resounding success.
Commenting on the occasion, Mrs. Sondos Saad, Vice President, Media & Communications at Markaz, said: “Our participation today reflects a deep-set belief in the importance of empowering today’s generation with the knowledge and skills they need to excel in the job market. In line with our CSR commitment, we at Markaz will continue to nurture talent, drive innovation, and build more sustainable communities.
