Our programs are developed by a dynamic team of teachers, artists, technologists and entrepreneurs, and focus on bringing ideas to life through design thinking and skills development workshops to seminars in entrepreneurialism and starting a business.
In a nutshell – we help youth create their AHA! moment by sparking their curiosity and fueling their inspiration to become the innovators of tomorrow.
