In an unprecedented achievement, young Saudi woman Maryam bint Khalid Al-Otaibi has developed a smart application aimed at facilitating the lives of people with special needs. This accomplishment comes as part of the Kingdom’s efforts to empower women in the field of technology and innovation.

Maryam, aged 27, holds a bachelor’s degree in computer science from King Saud University. She began her journey in the world of technology at a young age, where she enjoyed designing websites and developing applications.

In 2022, Maryam participated in the “Special Needs Hackathon” organized by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA). During this event, she presented the idea for the “Noor” application, which helps the visually impaired navigate independently within public buildings.

“My goal with this application was to empower people with special needs and make their lives easier,” says Maryam. “I was inspired by a personal experience with one of my relatives who suffers from visual impairment.”

The “Noor” application won first place in the competition and received widespread praise from the audience. It also attracted the attention of several major technology companies in the Kingdom.

According to official statistics, there are more than 3 million people with special needs in Saudi Arabia. The Kingdom’s Vision 2030 aims to improve their quality of life and integrate them into society.

Commenting on Maryam’s achievement, Dr. Ahmed Al-Sabai’, advisor to the Minister of Communications and Information Technology, said: “We are proud of our young talents who contribute to building a promising digital future for the Kingdom. Maryam is a role model for ambitious Saudi women.”

Currently, Maryam is working on developing an advanced version of the “Noor” application in collaboration with the Royal Commission for Riyadh City. She also plans to launch a startup specializing in developing technological solutions for people with special needs.

“I aspire to be a role model for young Saudi women and encourage them to enter the field of technology,” Maryam concludes. “With knowledge and determination, nothing is impossible.”

Maryam’s success comes at a time when the Kingdom is seeking to enhance the role of women in various sectors, especially in the fields of science, technology, and innovation. Her achievement is expected to inspire a new generation of Saudi innovators.

In this context, His Royal Highness Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, Minister of Foreign Affairs, said: “On this day, we renew the covenant and loyalty to our wise leadership and remember the sacrifices of fathers and grandfathers in unifying this blessed land.” He added: “February 22 represents a pivotal station in our national history, where the great dream of unifying the Kingdom was achieved by King Abdulaziz bin Abdul Rahman Al Saud – may God have mercy on him.”

The capital, Riyadh, witnessed a majestic military parade in which units from all sectors of the armed forces participated, while various heritage and cultural events were held in public squares and parks.

In a deal that shook the foundations of the summer transfer market, Brazilian winger Malcolm de Oliveira arrived in Saudi Arabia from Russian club Zenit Saint Petersburg to sign with Al-Hilal on a four-year contract worth 60 million euros, making him one of the most expensive signings in Saudi football history.

Malcolm (26), who began his European journey with French club Bordeaux before moving to Barcelona in the summer of 2018 for 41 million euros, did not get sufficient opportunities with the Catalan team. The player himself expressed great happiness with the move to Al-Hilal, stating in press statements: “I am very excited to play in the Saudi league, and I promise the fans to give my best.”

Malcolm’s transfer comes within Al-Hilal’s strategy to strengthen their squad with distinguished players, especially after successfully signing global stars like Kalidou Koulibaly and Salem Al-Dawsari. Malcolm is expected to add a new attacking dimension to the team, benefiting from his exceptional speed and high individual skills.

It is worth noting that Malcolm has represented the Brazilian national team on several occasions and was part of the squad that won the gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. He scored 29 goals and provided 22 assists in 96 matches with Zenit, confirming his ability to quickly adapt to any league.

Conclusion:
With Malcolm’s arrival, it appears that the Saudi league continues to attract global stars, increasing competition strength and placing Saudi football on the world map. Malcolm is expected to be a strong addition to Al-Hilal in their journey towards achieving local and continental titles.
