Fellow Honored by P.M. for Victories in Global Robotics
Fellow Faten Khalfallah Hammouda (Tunisia, 2015), co-founder of First Skills Club, was honored at the Government Palace in the Kasbah by Tunisian Prime Minister Kamal Maddouri on October 19, 2024. This ceremony celebrated young Tunisian leaders who achieved recent international success in technology, science, and innovation. Faten’s robotics team, the Carthage Eagles, earned two gold medals and one bronze at the prestigious FIRST Global Challenge, the world’s largest annual robotics competition, which was held in Athens, Greece from September 26 to 29 of this year.
Reflecting on the recognition, Faten said, “This honor, along with the support we’ve received, encourages us to move forward in our mission to empower youth to become future tech leaders and inspires us to continue our strategy with great determination.”
Faten is scheduled to join the the first global TechWomen Alumnae Summit in Casablanca, Morocco this December.
