Students Ghadeer Al-Jafen and Rima Al-Sma'il from the University's College of Computing won the third place in the camp of the General Authority for Small and Medium Enterprises "Monsha'at" on Thursday, 18/4/1442 AH, out of 70 projects submitted by more than 1000 students from 23 Saudi universities in the camp.
The College of Computing participated in the camp through the "Smart Diet" project, by students Ghadeer Al-Jeffen and Rima Al-Samail, which contributes to using artificial intelligence to suggest appropriate healthy food to users based on their health status and dietary preferences.
This promising project of the two university students succeeded in reaching the final stage, which included 12 projects, and later won the third place after all participating projects went through three stages during two months of work, where each stage included presentations in front of a group of specialized judging committees and investors, funds and individuals, to culminate in the third place.
The camp is part of the University Startups Initiative, a national initiative that aims to create an environment that enables entrepreneurs and creative ideas in the Kingdom's universities to work and support their transformation into startups.
