STEM Guyana is set to host its highly anticipated Future Innovators Expo on January 27, 2024 at the Georgetown Marriott Hotel.

The event is an opportunity for the youth to learn about STEM Guyana’s programmes, meet STEM youth from each region, build robots, fly drones and win loads of prizes which are up for grabs.

STEM Club Coordinator, Akeelah Andrew said: “The Future Innovators Expo, is all about young people getting involved in STEM, because STEM careers and STEM is the future of Guyana and the rest of the world.”

“So, we’ll be showcasing what we’ve been doing at the afterschool programmes, as well as our recently launched drone soccer programme, where students will be learning to fly drones, first at a basic level and then competitively to participate in drone soccer.”

The expo is open to anyone who is interested in STEM (that is young people of all ages and their families).

Akeelah noted that first, those in attendance will witness the prize-giving ceremony which will honour every youth who has worked hard with the organisation, have shown their commitment and has done well.

“They’ve excelled at various robotics competitions, as well as contributing to our clubs by volunteering,” she remarked.

Persons interested in attending the expo can visit STEM Guyana on Facebook where a link can be found to register for its event. Tickets cost $2,000 per person, and $5,000 for families.
The expo is sponsored by the International Development Bank and ANSA McAL Group of Companies.
