This program brings our makerspace and activities across the Philippines to reach and empower the youth, fostering young creatives beyond Vivistop Baguio. Since 2022: 16 events, 10 cities, 1,700+ youth visitors.
A dynamic acceleration program for children aged 8-17, transforming ideas into prototypes to cultivate the innovative problem solvers of tomorrow. Outputs include a smart walking cane for the visually impaired and an anti-corruption app for the government and civilians.
Participants design and fabricate their own robots that compete in a friendly robotics competition designed to foster creativity and innovation. Robocon Baguio was held on November 11-12, 2023 with 93 participants and over 500 attendees.
A two-week program turning 8-15 year-olds into entrepreneurs. Participants go through an incubation weekend with workshops on product development, branding, pricing, and pitching, culminating with a market day 2 weeks later. We have had 7 runs, 50+ participants and over P150,000 in gross sales so far.
We partner with teachers, recognizing them as key multipliers in our shared vision of reaching and empowering youth. We offer programs designed to support educators from kindergarten through senior high school, focusing on confident communication, agile thinking, effective parent engagement, and renewed inspiration through classroom innovation.
“
All of the activities I joined always had a special place in my heart. But if I had to choose, the pop-ups, Robocon, Make It Market, and Vista were always the most memorable ones... However, all the activities whether big or small, even the free flows still taught me a lot of importance about learning, skills, and friendships.”
