Invitation - Young Technopreneur Challenge 2022

 Dear SST students,

Junior Achievement Singapore is organising JA Young Technopreneur Challenge 2022.  

 

The Young Technopreneur, sponsored by HP Inc., aims to support students to take ownership of the world they live in and actively develop solutions to the UN Sustainable Goals or Singapore Green Plan 2030 or Sustainable South West Masterplan.

The challenge consists of 3 boot camps where students will develop their ideas, go through a rigorous design thinking process, research and prototype, as well as learn about the steps to becoming a technopreneur.  

Secondary 2 or 3 students who are interested can form teams of 4. You can email Mr Lam (lam_hin_chew@sst.edu.sg) the details of your team name, all the members' names, classes and mobile numbers. Participants must be able to commit to attending the 3 bootcamps by JA Singapore and the weekly TDP sessions on Monday afternoons from 3 - 5 p.m. to work on the competition. They must also have their parents'/guardians' permissions to take part.

On top of the attractive prices which our students had won previously, this year's top 3 teams will also have a chance to participate in a 1 - 5 day company job shadow programme with HP Inc.

Registration is on a first come first serve basis (each school is allowed a maximum of 3 teams). All registrations must be approved by SST as it is school representation. Registration closes once the 3 teams have emailed me with all the details or Monday 11 April.
