1st Place Winner: IPG Engine+ Innovation Competition

I’m honored to share that my team and I earned 1st place in the Interpublic Group (IPG) Engine+ Innovation Competition for developing an innovative consumer privacy-focused solution.

This experience was both exciting and rewarding. It allowed me to collaborate with incredible minds to address one of the most pressing issues in today’s digital world: protecting consumer privacy.

The Engine+ Innovation Competition is an internal event hosted by IPG in collaboration with KINESSO and Matterkind. Participants pitch bold, forward-thinking ideas to a panel of judges. The competition provides the chance to win funding and a cash prize and encourages groundbreaking solutions that can make a tangible difference.

Winning this competition means more than recognition—it reflects my passion for solving complex problems with thoughtful, impactful solutions. Our idea focused on balancing technological advancement and ethical responsibility, aiming to empower consumers and organizations in a rapidly evolving digital ecosystem.

This project allowed me to explore how innovation can thrive without compromising privacy, and I’m incredibly proud of what we accomplished as a team. I look forward to the next steps in bringing this solution to life and continuing to champion responsible innovation in the tech space.

Thank you to IPG, KINESSO, and Matterkind for creating such an inspiring platform and to everyone who supported me throughout this journey.
