Kuwait City: Jenan Al-Shehab, a Kuwaiti female engineer, was awarded a gold medal for Invention and Scientific Research at the World Cup 2022 on Friday in recognition of her invention of electromagnetic cells for wireless power transmission.


The US Patent and Trademark Office granted Shehab's invention a patent (USPTO). The competition, which began Thursday on the sidelines of the Tokyo International Symposium on Development in Africa (TICAD8), drew nearly 1,200 participants.
