A renewed appreciation for a natural cosmetics product used by women across Africa led two MBA students at the Kelley School of Business to win the 2018 Clapp IDEA Competition, defeating more than 100 other student teams. Second-year students Awa Diaw, who is originally from Senegal, and Chelsea Trotter emerged victorious over 39 other teams participating in the competition’s semifinal and final rounds, where they made pitches to investors and won the $15,000 cash prize.

Wearable fitness
For the past three years, Shayan Khokar has played a lead role in creating a knee-brace-based fitness tracker and mobile app that provides users real-time feedback on their form as they perform squats during a workout. On April 12, he went to the racquetball courts at the WIC for the device’s first beta test. Two days later, Khokhar and four others were honored as recipients of the IU Bloomington Provost’s Award for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity.
