Sheikha Hind meets Stars of Science finalists

Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development (QF) vice chairperson and CEO HE Sheikha Hind bint Hamad al-Thani met the four finalists of this season’s Stars of Science TV programme, as well as alumni from the show, ahead of the finale on Saturday.
During the gathering at the QF headquarters yesterday, Sheikha Hind talked with the science and research role models about their ideas and ambitions for the future, which align with QF’s desire to embolden innovation and entrepreneurship in Qatar and the region.
Noting their position as powerful community representatives, Sheikha Hind described them as shining examples for future generations who will go on to pursue scientific studies.
“You each have a unique ability to positively influence the region’s young minds as inspirational role models, and your recent visit to Qatar Academy was undoubtedly a source of great encouragement for the young students,” she added.
The meeting served as a prelude to the conclusion of the popular ‘edutainment’ TV show, currently in its eighth year.
An initiative of QF, the series aims to showcase creative solutions that address regional and global challenges within the information technology and energy industries, as well as the environment and health sectors.
