FUTURE GEN GIRLS 明日女菁

The IdeaGO Ideathon 2024 (“Ideathon”) organized by JYC Girls Impact Foundation (“JYCGIF”), aims to provide teen girls with a platform to learn and develop Innovation and Technology (“I&T”) capabilities, and to demonstrate leadership and creativity in the field of I&T. Through the application of project management, design thinking, and I&T tools, participants have the opportunity to propose innovative solutions to contemporary social issues. Ideathon participants will benefit from the support of industry professionals, who will guide participants in devising and implementing their end-to-end solutions. Riding on the success of Ideathon 2023, we have introduced a new theme to our roster, to further tap into students’ skills and competencies.
