Future Creators - mentoring youth to innovate
At Edmonton's recent KDays event, Alberta Innovates had the opportunity to participate as in-kind sponsors for the Innovation Zone led by Explore Edmonton. This was a great opportunity to meet and feature some Edmonton-based entrepreneurs, businesses and students on the Shift podcast.
This is the third episode and it features my brief chat with Krishna Panchal from the University of Alberta's Future Creators.
KDays Innovation Zone interviews also include:
- Jean Bruce Koua from Elev Homes,
- Ken Schmidt and Kathy Janzen from Wilson Analytical, and
- Joe Callahan from Correct AI.
Future Creators
Future Creators is a University of Alberta Engineering student group and nonprofit organization that inspires future engineers and technology innovators by providing youth with the mentors, knowledge, and resources to bring their own technology projects to life.
They partner with schools to provide a weekly afterschool program to students in grades 7-12.
Shift by Alberta Innovates focuses on the people, businesses and organizations that are contributing to Alberta's strong tech ecosystem.
