Every semester, JOLTcon creates an opportunity for teens to experience a new view of the use of technology and innovation to empower them for a more prosperous future.
This free event will be hosted on two Saturdays this spring at Southern University. Free lunch is included for registered participants.
This semester’s theme is about “Creating NextGen Innovators” through technology, creative arts, and business development.
The first event, on February 24th, youth aged 12-18 have the opportunity to gain the skills for developing the next-gen of businesses, preparing to pitch their (existing or new) business concepts at the March 23rd competition event. This competition event will allow for groups or individuals to pitch their business ideas for a $500 cash prize.
JOLTcon is a 2-part conference series. Teens who attend the February event, will automatically be eligible to compete in the competition in March.
