Safaa Boubia

2018 Emerging Leader of Morocco Safaa Boubia shares her perspective in the second blog post of our Emerging Leader Voices series. Safaa, a web strategist, also co-founded Houna, a collaborative platform that seeks to change society through design and culture. At Houna, Safaa encourages collaboration between social impact initiatives and tech, exemplified by a recent workshop at WeAreMuseums. There, she showcased the work of IT startups who offer solutions that help improve the museum visitor experience by combining art with interactive technologies.
“The TechWomen experience could not happen in a better moment for my professional career and personal goals,” she writes. “I want to gain deep insight into machine learning and AI technology so I can impact people’s lives and create cultural projects that go beyond physical limitations or borders.” Safaa will be hosted by PayPal for her TechWomen professional mentorship.
