About
P-Vita tackles the dual challenges of high raw material costs and environmental waste in the MENA region by producing natural ingredients for the cosmetics and food industries. Utilising biotechnology, AI, and IoT, P-Vita recycles agricultural waste, such as palm byproducts, into valuable raw materials like beta-carotene, glycerin, and citric acid. This process not only reduces the environmental impact of waste but also provides cost-effective, eco-friendly alternatives to traditional raw materials, enhancing supply chain efficiency and sustainability

Mohamed Abdelzaher
Zewail city of science, technology and innovation
An Environmental Engineer, Mohamed excels in multitasking in highly competitive areas. Since an early age, he has been actively engaging in innovative activities that have undoubtedly shaped his habit of reaching his goals ,but other than being a highly competitive person, he also cared about some very serious stuff, such as involvement in global climate change discussions at COP 27 and COY 17 with UNICEF (mic drop!). This, along with his commitment to scientific studies and problem-solving, made him a pro in constantly advancing his knowledge. The latter inevitably led him to the winning project, P-vita.
