Ooredoo Group has won first place in the energy efficiency category at the 'GCC Sustainability Hackathon 2025', cementing its leadership in using AI to drive greener, more efficient digital infrastructure.

The hackathon, recently hosted by stc and held under the umbrella of the GCC ESG Telecommunications Alliance, of which Ooredoo is a founding member, received 310 submissions from across the region, with only 15 finalists selected. Competing against leading innovators and telcos, Ooredoo's entry rose to the top.

The winning project, developed by Ooredoo Group's AI team, introduced CooL-LLM - an AI-driven large language model (LLM) solution for data centre cooling.

Fatima Sultan al-Kuwari, Group Chief Human Resources & Sustainability officer, Ooredoo, said: "From AI-optimised networks to greener data centres, we are proving that technology and sustainability go hand in hand - creating business value while reducing environmental footprint."

Alongside the hackathon finals, al-Kuwari joined fellow sustainability leaders from across the GCC as a panellist and award presenter at the closing ceremony.
