< Developing the next generation of technology entrepreneurs />
By exposing children to Software Engineering, Product Development and Prototyping, we are grooming the next generation of industrialists, engineers and entrepreneurs
INDUSTRIAL DESIGN
Juniors are introduced to the process of 3D design applied to products that are to be manufactured by mass production. They then 3D Print components for their project/prototype for assembly.
COGNITIVE FLEXIBILITY
Our incubatees are encouraged to learn multiple parts of solutions they develop They have to master or understand both software and hardware parts of the problem.
SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
Juniors gain and integrate knowledge from various subject areas, including computer programming, human-computer interaction, database systems, web development, project management, and engineering.
CRITICAL THINKING
We challenge juniors to think about the future and their role in leading change through developing Arduino-powered technological solutions. This allows for deeper perspective and understanding.

Introduce your child to Software programming, Prototyping & Entrepreneurship from 8-years-old!
OUR WHY
We need to challenge the status quo
Children and youths today require technical skills training programmes that are future-focused, purpose-driven and industry-relevant.
Narrow-mindedness the order of the day
Creativity, collaboration and embracing diversity need to be the cornerstone of education and mentorship programmes.
Social skills must be at the heart of education
Curiosity, complex-problem solving, critical thinking, and leadership skills are necessary to produce a generation ready for the future of work.
We are a 4IR Skills Hub with a mission to prepare young people in our country to think critically and solve societal problems creatively in order to create economic opportunities for themselves and those around them
Through our learnings and experience, we developed our own Arduino-powered curriculum - it gradually introduces children to Software, Electronics and Entrepreneurship in a fun, practical and engaging way.
An In-house Arduino-powered curriculum
Junior Coders / Engineers (as we refer to them) get to develop projects/prototypes from their original ideas. We ensure that they develop solutions to problems they care deeply about the way they want to.
