== Inspiration: Solution ==

Our UIF team was inspired by The aim of this program is to make USJ involved in the extreme documentary provided by the Stanford teamcommunity. We would like It consists of forming groups of students from different majors in order to start work on a project like this on real problem encountered in a smaller scale certain region in Lebanon . This way students will be initiated to help multidisciplinary work, they will invest their potential and will be efficient in their community while using the communityfacilities offered by their university. This may initiate future projects that students may be inspired to do after they graduate. This project will help allow USJ to be better in the Spin-out section because our university reach level 5 (Spin Out)has a lot of wet labs and offers several facilities but are only used for academic purposes and for research.

= <span style="color: rgb(0From here, 0, 0);">Project 4&nbsp;: Rooftop Cafe</span> =we got the idea of Innovative Coffee Machine.

The rooftop cafe will be This project isn’t about a place where students can meet talk and engage in conversations. Students from all USJ campuses can go out and meet at the USJ rooftop located in the Mansourieh Campus. The rooftop there has one coffee machine that instead of the most beautiful views coffee serves innovation, but instead of Beirut and it is far from wasting their time students talking about random non-necessary topics, the city with Coffee Machine will help them start a calm environmentdiscussion without them knowing.

 ==Concept ==  #Where is it? The Innovative Coffee Machine has not only one house but it’s going to have many houses on each campus. #When is it? The Innovative Coffee Machine will randomly be transported all over the campuses at a pace of 2 times a month for multiple campuses. #What is it? The Innovative Coffee Machine is a regular coffee machine that serves regular coffee for free. But what is special in this coffee machine is: *Prototype 1: Key Speaker – A person sharing giving a workshop about certain topics*Prototype 2: A whiteboard is written on it a topic that uses great marketing technics to promote itself and let students discuss it and learn from each other’s experiences*Prototype (Idea – On - Paper) 3: The coffee machine talks to the students taking coffee using AI and suggest they talk about projects and topics that might be interesting and will help them develop their personal skills. = Project Video: = This is the link to the youtube video for our project.
