Feminine Intelligence Agency (FIA) is pioneering a groundbreaking field of social discernment, aiming to empower women to recognize and counter manipulation tactics, including the emerging threat of AI-assisted psychological exploitation (AIPEx). Despite the profound health benefits of FIA’s solutions, such as neurofeedback and personalized cognitive tools, the concept is largely unknown, and many potential users do not yet perceive its relevance.

The project will challenge graduate students to apply their expertise in innovation commercialization to develop a comprehensive strategy for bringing this transformative concept to market. By analyzing the market, evaluating risks, and crafting actionable strategies, the students will help position FIA as a leader in this emerging field.
