Qatari entrepreneur and innovator, Khalid Aboujassoum, was a guest speaker at the CES Food Tech Conference, an annual trade show organised by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA).

Aboujassoum is the founder and CEO of Else Labs Inc, which produces and sells his own revolutionary invention, Oliver, a smart cooking robot that helps to optimise kitchen automation.

He is also the co-founder and current chairman of Ibtechar, Qatar’s first incubated innovation and turnkey solutions startup, which has actually delivered 70% of all innovation spaces in Qatar over the past decade.

The event, which concluded Saturday at the Venetian Expo and Convention Centre in Las Vegas, hosts presentations of products and technologies in the consumer electronics industry.

This edition of the conference examined how the world of food and cooking is being reinvented through innovation and technology. It brought together leaders of food, culinary, and technology industries from around the world to share lessons learned and discuss the biggest opportunities and challenges in food tech.
