The Holy Spirit University of Kaslik (USEK) welcomed guest speaker Mr. Samir Abi Abdallah from Synergy Compliance Consulting (SCC) for a seminar on “Fostering Responsible AI-Based Research, Innovation, and Technology Transfer in Higher Education.” Hosted by the Technology Transfer Office (TTO), the event took place on Monday, November 3, 2025, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m., in the Conference Hall (Building E).

Focusing on ethics and accountability as drivers of quality, trust, and long-term impact, the seminar highlighted USEK’s ongoing efforts in technology transfer and innovation management. This forward-looking debate demonstrated how Lebanon’s academic and entrepreneurial ecosystem can bridge the gap between international AI standards and ethical principles, ensuring that no development stage, from idea generation to commercialization is overlooked.
