Mr. Hassan Jarrar, Bahrain Islamic Bank (BisB) Chief Executive Officer, recently recognized and awarded the winning team of the Virtual Innovation Camp, organized by BisB in collaboration with INJAZ Bahrain for University of Bahrain students, in the presence of a number of representatives responsible for the organization of the event from both parties. The Virtual Innovation Camp was held over a period of two days, from 9 to 10November, and received 8 participating teams, comprising a total of 130 students. The Virtual Innovation Camp is an initiative designed to develop and inspire entrepreneurially minded students by giving them an educational glimpse into the realm of investment, ultimately broadening their horizons. BisB guided the participating students through 8 volunteers from the Bank, who supported each group with the development of an innovative solution inspired by sustainability. The ideas were finally presented to a judging panel comprising of Ms. Dalal Al Rayes, BisB Head of Human Resources, and BisB Marketing Manager Mr. Ahmed Fakhro. The Innovation Camp was held virtually via Zoom, where students, the mentoring staff, event organizers, and guest speakers Shaikh Abdulla Al Khalifa from Zain, and Ms. Elaine Hilal from Alba were connected for the event.
