School Awareness : Eco Champions Initiatives

On Saturday, May 3rd, Beltone—the main partner of the Ignited Competition under the Eco-Champion Program—proudly supported the dynamic closing event held at Nile University, organized under the supervision of the “Professional Development Foundation”. More than 500 students participated, demonstrating creativity, innovation, and a shared passion for sustainability. Teams presented unique projects, many of which featured robots designed to address environmental challenges. The competition concluded with an awards ceremony, where each winning team received a trophy—transforming bright ideas into real-world impact.

As part of our ongoing commitment to empowering youth through the Eco-Champions School Sustainability Awareness initiative, we are proud to witness the growing impact of our future leaders—both locally and globally.

We are proud to celebrate the incredible achievements of young talents who represented Egypt at the Codeavour closing ceremony in Qatar—a global platform for innovation and AI-powered solutions.

Four student-led projects, supported and nurtured through this journey, were proudly showcased on the international stage. Each project demonstrated remarkable creativity, purpose-driven innovation, and a deep commitment to solving real-world challenges.”

We are thrilled to share that all four projects received awards in different categories, recognizing their creativity, feasibility, and social value. The following provides an overview of each project, highlighting their innovative solutions and impact.

Elite Innovation Squad – The International School of Elite

The team created a piezoelectric-powered shoe that generates energy from walking to run a self-regulating greenhouse. This eco-friendly solution supports sustainability in off-grid areas and has potential for further improvement.

Infinity Team – Ivecom Academy

The Green Planet project turns urban rooftops into smart farms using IoT and AI. It enables remote monitoring via Adafruit IO and uses a camera-equipped robot to detect plant diseases, promoting both environmental and economic sustainability.

Re-Code Pioneers – IEEE Suez

Smart Soil uses AI and machine learning to optimize irrigation, conserve water, boost crop yields, and promote sustainable agriculture.

Elite Tech Titans

The team developed a closed-loop water recycling system that reuses greywater while using AI to detect harmful water bugs. This innovative solution aims to conserve water and tackle scarcity, with applications in homes, agriculture, and industry.

These recognitions are a testament to the exceptional talent of the young minds behind them and to Beltone’s role in nurturing initiatives that align with our ESG and innovation strategies
