๐Ÿค–ย MSc Artificial Intelligence students Rostam Sodagari and Daud Ibrahim were part of the winning team at the London Agentic Evolution Hackathon - taking 1st place out of 70+ teams and 200+ participants ๐Ÿ†

Their project, PlanPass AI, is an intelligent platform designed to help homeowners and builders navigate complex planning regulations before committing to costly designs, tackling a problem that costs the UK around ยฃ900 million every year. ๐Ÿ’ปโš™๏ธ

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œThe skills you build in the classroom only fully click when you put them under real pressure.โ€

A huge congratulations to Rostam and Daud on this well-deserved win ๐Ÿ‘
