Inaugural Maseeh Innovation Competition

The Maseeh Innovation Competition is a new initiative designed to inspire commercialization, foster collaboration, and encourage entrepreneurial thinking across disciplines. This two-round competition will bring together students from diverse backgrounds to transform innovative ideas into viable companies. To help teams form and develop ideas, multiple networking and pitching events will be held prior to the first-round submission. These sessions aim to connect CAEE students with business students and other potential collaborators.

Competition Structure

• Round 1: Teams submit a short video and an executive summary.
• Round 2: Selected finalists present a live pitch to a panel of judges, including investors, entrepreneurs, and faculty.
