Twenty students aged 13-16 years from several public and private
schools participated in the program. The program included two phases; the first
phase was launched at the beginning of this year, coinciding with the winter
holidays for schools, the second phase was launched recently in conjunction
with the summer holidays.
The program featured intensive training courses in the various
fields of entrepreneurship, programming, robotics, drone manufacturing, digital fabrication, electronic games development,
graphic design, and music. Additionally, the program offered extracurricular
activities and field tours organized by ZINC, to contribute to the development
of students' skills and help them discover their abilities and identify what
