Oriented on making people closer

On November 24, the capital's business center "Arkach" hosted the kick-off event of the new season of the Technovation Girls Turkmenistan program. The meeting brought together interested participants, entrepreneurs, and alumni of the previous seasons of the program.

To mark the start of the new season, representatives of the Chapter team gave an introductory presentation and provided detailed information about the key aspects of Technovation Girls Program, sharing achievements from previous years: over the past seasons, 14 teams from Turkmenistan have reached the competition's global semifinals.

The event traditionally concluded with a networking session, during which participants had the opportunity to get to know each other better, as well as meet with invited experts and program partners.

The Technovation Girls is an international program that is run in Turkmenistan for the 4th consecutive year now. The project is a global initiative aimed at developing social entrepreneurship and promoting opportunities for young girls in the STEM fields.

Within the largest technological competition for girls, participants form teams of up to 5 members and work on developing a mobile application designed to address social issues at the local or international level.

At the end of each season, finalist teams gather at the Global Summit in California, where they present their prototypes to the leaders of major tech companies, such as Google, Meta, Amazon, etc. The program is supported by the U.S. Embassy in Turkmenistan.

More information about the program can be found on the official website and the project’s Instagram page (@technovation_tm).
