Amman, Sept. 8 (Petra) — Orange Jordan announced on Tuesday the
winners of the 10th local edition of the Orange Social Venture Prize
(OSVP) for 2026, with three Jordanian entrepreneurs recognized for
innovative projects addressing renewable energy, road safety and
clean energy.

Tareq Hamdan won first place and a JD4,000 cash prize for “Iris,” a
project developing renewable energy solutions using solar and wind
systems to reduce costs and reliance on traditional energy sources.

Muath Hasan took second place and JD2,500 for “SYNIRO,” which uses
artificial intelligence and smart technologies to improve road safety
and healthcare, promote safer mobility and reduce the risk of road
accidents.

Yara Siddiq won third place and JD1,500 for “PowerBlocks,” a project
offering solutions to make clean energy more accessible, efficient
and scalable for different users and applications.

The three winners will qualify for the international edition of the
prize later this year, where they will compete alongside
entrepreneurs from 17 countries in which Orange operates across the
Middle East and Africa.

Orange Jordan CEO Philippe Mansour expressed pride in reaching the
10th anniversary of the prize in Jordan, saying the milestone
reflects the company’s commitment to supporting entrepreneurship and
its confidence in the ability of Jordanian youth to develop
innovative solutions with positive social and environmental impact.

people through the Orange Digital Center and its programs, which
focus on developing talent, strengthening digital skills and
