He aims to develop next-gen cardiovascular wearables through the Innovation Hub. Samir is an electrical engineering student at Carleton and co-founder of Soma, a biosensing wearable for muscle recovery tracking. He&#8217;s passionate about embedded systems and optimizing athletic performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Pitch Summary\u00a0<br><\/strong>Soma is a modular wearable biometric system for serious athletes. Unlike Fitbit, WHOOP, or Oura, Soma places directly on the muscle using a core device that attaches to interchangeable bands, capturing data no wearable currently can. It tracks three pillars: heart (rate, SpO2, blood pressure), muscle (activation, efficiency, injury risk), and hormones (hydration, cortisol, anabolic state). Raw data is translated into plain-language feedback, with deeper metrics available for advanced users. A gamification layer with leaderboards and badges makes complex biomarkers motivating. Built for bodybuilders, powerlifters, and health enthusiasts who want real insight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"akiba\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Akiba<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong class=\"myprefix-text-bold\">Daryll Giovanny<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"w-screen px-6 cu-section cu-section--white ml-offset-center md:px-8 lg:px-14\">\n    <div class=\"space-y-6 cu-max-w-child-5xl  md:space-y-10 cu-prose-first-last\">\n\n        \n    <div class=\"grid gap-6 mx-auto my-6 cu-column md:gap-10 md:grid-cols-2 md:my-10 first:mt-0\">\n        \n<div class=\"cu-column-content\">\n    \n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1536\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-1024x1536.jpg\" alt=\"Akiba founder\" class=\"wp-image-9257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-512x768.jpg 512w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-320x480.jpg 320w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2026\/04\/Akiba-1-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cu-column-content\">\n    \n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong class=\"myprefix-text-bold\">About the Founders <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Giovanny is a third year Computer Science student at Carleton University with a minor in Economics.

Akiba is a crowdfunding platform that addresses this problem by tracking every donation and giving donors visibility into how funds are used and the impact they create. By making donations more accountable and impact more visible, Akiba increases donor confidence and helps credible campaigns build trust faster.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"allies-in-innovation\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Allies In Innovation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"w-screen px-6 cu-section cu-section--white ml-offset-center md:px-8 lg:px-14\">\n    <div class=\"space-y-6 cu-max-w-child-5xl  md:space-y-10 cu-prose-first-last\">\n\n        \n    <div class=\"grid gap-6 mx-auto my-6 cu-column md:gap-10 md:grid-cols-2 md:my-10 first:mt-0\">\n        \n<div class=\"cu-column-content\">\n    \n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"101\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/DataKinetics-Logo-400x101.png\" alt=\"Data Kinetics Logo\n\" class=\"wp-image-8116\" style=\"width:326px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/DataKinetics-Logo-400x101.png 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/DataKinetics-Logo-160x40.png 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/DataKinetics-Logo-240x60.png 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/DataKinetics-Logo-360x90.png 360w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/DataKinetics-Logo.png 597w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cu-column-content\">\n    \n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"124\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-400x124.png\" alt=\"Knak Logo\" class=\"wp-image-8117\" style=\"width:243px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-400x124.png 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-160x50.png 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-240x74.png 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-768x238.png 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-1536x475.png 1536w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2-360x111.png 360w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/innovationhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/thumbnail_knak-logo-colour-2.png 1764w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arvo by Sanora Labs Mohamed Osman &amp; Reema Alwadi Real Victors Victor Okenne SOMA Alex Stefanidis, Samir Bhuiyan, Arlana Davis, and Roy Luong About the Founders Alex is a fourth year Electrical engineering student at Carleton whose Capstone built a custom PPG sensor for wearable health monitoring.
