“The future of technology will focus less on the power of tools, and more on how we leverage their power to innovate,” said Tara Chklovski, founder and CEO of Technovation. “This year’s winners underscore the impact that power can have in solving local challenges that can inspire and be adapted to needs in communities around the world.”
The World Summit builds on a 12-year partnership between Technovation and Boeing, including a $250,000 investment that will help connect 25,000 young builders with engineers around the world for hands-on, project-based learning.
“At Boeing, we believe that the future of innovation depends on giving the next generation opportunities to build, experiment, and solve real-world problems,” said Salil Gupte, president, Boeing India & South Asia. “We are proud to partner with Technovation and support these solutions that will undoubtedly shape our tomorrow.”
