Young Innovators Shined

Bright in the Silicon Valley

Invention Festival 2024

The Silicon Valley Invention Festival (SVIIF), America’s largest
innovation exposition, was a remarkable stage for two young
Global Innovation Field Trip presenters, Nicole Haragutchi and Ali
Humaid Alloghani, who showcased their exceptional talent and
groundbreaking ideas.
Nicole’s invention, the Wildfire Alarm System, equipped with a
provisional patent, earned her the prestigious Golden Globe Award
alongside three other honors. This was Nicole’s first patented
innovation, making the recognition even more rewarding.
Reflecting on her achievement, she ex-pressed immense pride in
contributing positively to our civilization and the planet.
Ali, on the other hand, wowed the judges with his innovative Dr.
Robot, winning the Gold Medal Award along with multiple other
accolades. His diverse innovations, all aimed at serving society,
made a lasting impression on the audience. Ali described his
participation in SVIIF 2024 as a dream come true, a testament to
the boundless opportunities for young inventors.
Both Nicole and Ali were the youngest participants in this year’s
exhibition, a distinction that was celebrated by Alireza Rastegar,
President of IFIA, and other notable dignitaries from the event,
industry, and local community.
