Biography

I am an MBA candidate at Cambridge Judge Business School with a strong focus on AI-driven entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems linking Cambridge and Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 agenda. My work spans AI applications in healthcare, education, sustainability, and venture building, including projects such as AI-powered radiology workflows, biomaterials from agricultural waste, and adaptive learning platforms. I actively engage with researchers, founders, and investors to translate research into scalable ventures, combining business strategy, technology understanding, and ecosystem development across the UK and Saudi Arabia.

Research Interests

My research interests sit at the intersection of artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, and emerging-market innovation systems. I am particularly interested in how AI can be translated from research into scalable, real-world ventures in sectors such as healthcare, education, sustainability, and financial inclusion. I explore how technologies like computer vision, large language models, and data-driven decision systems can improve workflows (e.g., radiology diagnostics), enable low-bandwidth adaptive learning, and create circular-economy solutions from agricultural and industrial waste.

A central focus of my work is understanding how innovation ecosystems—especially those linking Cambridge and Saudi Arabia—can accelerate the commercialization of research through venture building, cross-border networks, and institutional collaboration. I study how regulatory environments, funding structures, and stakeholder alignment influence the successful deployment of AI solutions in emerging economies. Ultimately, my interest lies in designing pathways that bridge research, entrepreneurship, and policy to create high-impact, context-aware AI ventures.
