World's a smartest kid for 2016 Mahmoud Wael

CAIRO – 7 November 2017: The world’s smartest kid of 2016, Mahmoud Wael, will be honored at the World Youth Forum’s closing ceremony next Thursday.

The now 17-year-old computer programmer said that he is proud of his country’s growing attention to young people, as well as appreciation of the aspiring ones; praising the successful organization of the forum which gives young people a voice to present their ideas and discuss their aspirations.

At the age of 14, Wael was nominated by Microsoft to pursue studies in the field given the fact that he was the youngest computer programmer to ever be licensed to instruct at universities.

Held under the auspices of President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi, the WYF, which is currently taking place in Sharm El-Sheikh, brings together 3,000 youth represented by 60 delegations from around the world to conjointly discuss issues of common interest
