Abdurakhman Smazov, a graduate of SFU Surrey’s Mechatronic Systems Engineering and tech e@SFU programs, has been selected for this year’s prestigious Next 36 program, which aims to “accelerate growth of Canada’s most talented young entrepreneurs by providing mentorship, capital and unparalleled founder development.”
Smazov is the co-founder of Orello Hearing Technologies.
His team developed a hearing aid that users can custom-mold to their ears and tune to their required frequency.
The idea was born in the tech e@SFU program, and being selected for the Next 36 program will further grow the company, he said.
“SFU has made it possible to bring what was barely an idea a year ago into a company with the goal of making the world a better place.”
