What We Showcased
As the CTO of SPACE.KRD, I led the technical presentation of our initiatives and innovations, including:
- Student-built applications such as delivery, pharmacy, and ERP systems
- Robotics kits and Arduino-based workshops for youth
- Our Flutter boot camps and courses taught across the region
- NutriCycle, our award-winning IoT project (2nd place at Rwanga Awards)
- A new AI-powered educational platform under development
Our booth attracted educators, tech leaders, and young students curious about building real-world projects.
My Role
- Managed the full technical showcase and demo prep
- Spoke to 200+ visitors about our mission and products
- Helped students at the booth understand the tech behind our apps
- Networked with other startups and regional tech leaders
Takeaways
- The interest in homegrown Kurdish tech is massive
- People are eager for education, mentorship, and access
- HITEX is a powerful launchpad for youth-led startups
Representing my team and students at HITEX 2024 reminded me how far we’ve come—and how much we’re capable of.
