Afrah Hussein Seid

My name is, Afrah Hussein Seid, a student and entrepreneur currently pursuing both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Computer Engineering at Addis Ababa Science & Technology University in Ethiopia. Throughout my academic journey, I’ve achieved remarkable success in both education and innovation. With a passion for pushing the boundaries of technology, I’ve spearheaded over 17 innovative projects. Among these standout creations include the Stair Climbing Balanced Wheelchair (Level Up), the AI BASE BOOK RECITER (AIBBR), the Automatic Waste Segregator Bin (EcoSort), and the ICU assistance system developed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond my academic pursuits, I’m also deeply involved in entrepreneurship. As the COO of Open Technologies, I co-founded a startup dedicated to manufacturing assistive devices for people with disabilities. Additionally, I’m a co-founder of O-Skills Technical Education Center, where we focus on providing skill-based technical education and empowering aspiring innovators.
