Anchored on the theme, “Empowering Future Women in Technology,” the event transformed the venue into a vibrant hub of discovery for junior and senior high school female students across Batangas Province.
Hands-on learning took center stage as students explored interactive stations such as the AI Creator Lab, Basic Coding Zone, Cyber Hero Station, Digital Design Studio, Innovation Mini Lab, and the eGovPH App showcase. These booths offered a comprehensive view of the digital landscape, empowering participants to move from passive users to active creators through engagement with emerging technologies, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and creative tools.
The event also featured an inspiring talk from Dr. Maria Graciela R. Bucad, OIC-Assistant Regional Director/ Information Technology Officer III, who shared her career journey and encouraged the young participants to pursue opportunities in the technology sector.
Collaboration played a key role in the event’s success. NUSURI from NU Lipa showcased their innovative project, while the IECEP Batangas Chapter contributed valuable professional insights and technical expertise, reinforcing the importance of a strong support network for aspiring women in tech.
DICT CALABARZON extends its sincere gratitude to participating schools and students whose enthusiasm and engagement made the event a success. The agency remains committed to empowering young women to pursue careers in STEM and to equipping them with the skills needed to shape the nation’s digital future.
