Marking seven years since @teenturn’s first Technovation session at The Digital Hub, the Technovation Challenge 2025 returned this month and we are thrilled to be able to facilitate @teenturn once again for this initiative.
The challenge invites teen girls to create a social enterprise that promotes positive changes in their communities through the delivery of a mobile app, and this 2025 challenge is about #PowerToTheGirl.
Alicia Ribeiro took part in @teenturn`s Technovation sessions last year and her app received the ‘Best Journey’ award at @scifest4stem, the national competition promoting science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
