This initiative stems from the University's vision to achieve sustainable development goals in areas such as forging partnerships for goals, quality education, sustainable cities and local communities, and promoting equal opportunities.

The inauguration was attended by His Excellency Professor Dr. Abdel Nasser Zaid, President of the University, and Mr. Mohammed Al-Dikka, Dean of Student Affairs, along with academic and administrative staff from the University's faculties, who explored its numerous sections and distinctive activities.

Participants in the exhibition's opening, which was held in the Faculty of Engineering square on the New Campus and lasted for two days, included Mr. Basem Ghayth, supervisor of the Arab Innovation Network Association and representative of An-Najah Innovation Park; Mr. Iyad Al-Aqraa, Director of Student Affairs; Mr. Anan Al-Nasser, Coordinator of Student Societies at the Deanship of Student Affairs; and student Mohammed Suwailem, Head of the "Ain" Student Branch of the Arab Innovation Network, in addition to the administrative staff, participants in the various exhibition sections, and a large number of students.

Mr. Ghayth expressed his pride and happiness with the students' outstanding efforts, commending the role and efforts of the Network's head and administrative board members, as well as the University administration and the Deanship of Student Affairs for providing the opportunity to hold this remarkable and large exhibition. He noted that it is a pioneering exhibition due to the diversity of its sections and participants, encompassing many specializations, including economic, medical, scientific, and recreational fields. He also explained that An-Najah Innovation Park and the Deanship of Student Affairs made significant efforts to reactivate the role of the "Ain" network by selecting a new administrative board for the Network to oversee its upcoming activities.

In turn, Mr. Al-Aqraa clarified that the University administration and the Deanship of Student Affairs support the organization of various student activities and events, especially those of student societies. He affirmed that the "An Eye on the Future" exhibition, organized by the Arab Innovation Network, is the first activity of the Network's new administrative board, and this year it was exceptionally well-arranged and organized, featuring a large and diverse number of sections.

He also pointed out that the Deanship of Student Affairs supervises more than 33 student societies at the University that compete to offer the best activities and events in many fields and specializations. He noted that the University administration attaches utmost importance to these activities and praised the cooperation with An-Najah Innovation Park and Mr. Basem Ghayth, the association's supervisor, for his continuous follow-up on the Network.

For his part, student Suwailem appreciated the efforts of the University administration, the Deanship of Student Affairs, and An-Najah Innovation Park for providing the opportunity to hold the "An Eye on the Future" exhibition. He affirmed that the Network's new board had decided to wait a little before launching its first activities and to work on organizing a comprehensive exhibition that includes many specializations and differs from other familiar exhibitions in terms of the nature of the participating sections and the overall scale of the exhibition and event.

He also noted that the Network will implement many upcoming events during the summer semester and future academic semesters, especially since it has returned strongly to the scene through the "An Eye on the Future" exhibition, which was visited by thousands of students. He simultaneously praised the efforts of all participants, sponsors, and funders of the exhibition.

The exhibition featured multiple sections, including: an introductory section for the Network, a mechanics section for displaying car parts, an architecture and planning section for showcasing student projects, an IT section, a marketing section, an economics section, and medical sections for dentistry, skin, and thalassemia, in addition to a photography section, an arts section, a virtual reality section, a law section, and a membership section for the association.
