Made in Kuwait

In this post I will be talking about the inventions made by young Kuwaiti men and women. I will also mention the awards that they have won.

The Stars of Science Show

The Stars of Science is a show that takes place in Qatar. Contestants all over the Arab countries meet up and show their inventions to a group of judges. At the end, there will be only one winner. In 2010, Sadeq Qasem from Kuwait won the title. Sadeq invented a device that prepared chemical samples. This device does five jobs that other devices do. It collects the samples and mix them together and heat them or cool them.  Sadeq named his invention "AlChemist".

Kuwait's Got Talent

Kuwait is passing by a time where its young talents are booming. We all can agree that Kuwait has an open society. People are more educated and more open to western societies. This is due to the spread of social media and TV channels. It is easier to see what other countries are doing. Certainly Kuwait is highly competing with other countries with its finest and best young talents.
