Congratulations to Said Baadel and the COMP 4521 class!

The COMP 4521 class participated and won first place in the INBU Hackathon organized by the International Business - Bisset Business School. 
The team was encouraged to develop a system that leverages AI to assist Alberta's SMEs in expanding globally, especially amid ongoing tariff wars. Given that 90% of Alberta’s exports go to the U.S., the province is highly susceptible to trade barriers. In response, the team created a lightweight application that assesses companies' global readiness and provides recommendations for improvement. During their demonstration, the judges were impressed by the app’s simplicity and its potential to help Alberta businesses explore international markets.
A BIG congratulations to everyone!
