For the past 10 weeks, LebNet’s 218 Tech Fellows, some of Lebanon’s brightest undergraduate students, have demonstrated tremendous dedication, curiosity, and hard work.

This year’s program focused on artificial intelligence, covering foundational and advanced AI concepts, applied techniques, autonomous systems, ethics, safety, and governance. Our LebNet Early in Career professionals brought these subjects to life by generously sharing their knowledge and experience.

We will announce the fellows eligible for graduation soon and look forward to celebrating their accomplishments at our graduation ceremony on September 18.

Thank you to all our fellows for being part of this remarkable journey!
