Supporting young talent
Hosted over three days, the immersive programme includes inspiring content from keynote talks and workshops from industry leaders across the region to inspire and guide participants - as well as a 24-hour hack competition allowing young talent to push their strategic and creative boundaries, working on a charity brief.
Participants learn and get mentored by senior industry leaders and take part in a hack challenge where the best team will be awarded for their ground-breaking creative solution to a challenge.
