Mesivta Ateres Yaakov Students Shine in Prestigious CIJE and Shark Tank Competitions

Under the expert guidance of MAY engineering instructor, Mr.  Pinchas Fiber, the team showcased exceptional creativity and engineering prowess.

The group’s groundbreaking invention, a Shabbos-compliant alarm clock, was a standout at the annual CIJE competition last year. This device allows Shabbos-observant users to set an alarm on Shabbos, addressing a longstanding challenge while enhancing quality of life. The Shabbos Alarm Clock not only secured first place at last year’s competition, but also earned them a coveted spot in this year’s CIJE Shark Tank competition. This Shark Tank event, held last week, featured only 12 top inventions from among hundreds across the nation.

Mr. Fiber praised his students’ determination and ingenuity. "It’s incredible to see the talent and commitment these young men bring to their work. Rafi, Yehuda and Avi represent the best of MAY, and their achievements inspire us all.”
