Show Notes

In this episode, I am talking to Deborah Carter about New Tech Kids - it’s a technology academy in Amsterdam which teaches primary school aged kids about tech innovation.

Deborah is the CO-FOUNDER & MANAGING  DIRECTOR of NewTechKids. In 2014, she made the leap into entrepreneurship to launch NewTechKids. With a son enrolled in Dutch primary school, she looked around for a place where he and other children could fall in love with technological innovation and computer science and learn how to be innovators and inventors. When she couldn’t find it, she decided to create it.

NewTechKids is a technology academy in Amsterdam, the Netherlands which teaches primary school aged kids about technological innovation: computer science, programming, design and critical thinking about the implication of technology. NewTechKids teaches during school, after school and during school vacations. They even teach overseas in places like the Middle East and Switzerland.
