We are thrilled to share that our Finance specialization students from UPEI McDougall Faculty of Business have achieved an incredible milestone! Participating in the 2nd Edition of the FinTech Got Talent Competition, hosted by the Central Bank of Egypt, our students ranked in the Top 10 out of over 30 universities and more than 150 competing teams.
The competition challenged participants to think outside the box, and our team, led by Dr. Mina Bishara, Assistant Professor of Finance, tackled a particularly pressing issue: How can we engage digitally savvy children in learning personal finance? Their solution? A gamified platform designed to teach children how to manage their allowance in a fun, interactive, and educational way.
This remarkable achievement is a testament to the innovative thinking and hard work of our students and faculty. Competing against some of the best and brightest minds in the country, our team stood out for their creativity and vision, proving that UPEI Cairo continues to foster forward-thinking talent.
We are incredibly proud of our students and excited to see how they continue to innovate in the fintech space. This success is just the beginning, and we look forward to sharing more about the impactful projects and initiatives our students will undertake in the future.
