Doha, Qatar: Qatar Foundation’s (QF) unique edutainment show Stars of Science has significantly influenced the culture of innovation and entrepreneurship in Qatar and the region by providing a platform for young innovators to showcase their ideas and turn them into prototypes. A leading jury member of Stars of Science, Professor Fouad Mrad, in an interview with The Peninsula highlighted the show’s pivotal role in inspiring generations to embrace innovation and entrepreneurship.
He said that by providing a dynamic platform for young visionaries to present their groundbreaking ideas, Stars of Science has successfully bridged the gap between scientific research and minimum viable products (MVP), fostering a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Stars of Science — hosted at Qatar Science & Technology Park — is the longest-running invention-focused TV show in the Arab world, has over 16 seasons and 168 Alumni from 18 Arab nationalities.
The show has seen significantly increasing female participation and contributions. The recently concluded Season 16 has seen a record, with 5 out of 7 finalists being women, reflecting a growing recognition of the vital role women play in the STEM fields.
