Unveiling Partnerships that Make Science Castle Philippines 2025 Possible
Leave a Nest Philippines is thrilled to announce the lineup of partners for the inaugural Science Castle Philippines 2025, set to take place on January 18, 2024, at the prestigious Ateneo de Manila University. This innovative festival aims to ignite curiosity and support the next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators in the Philippines.
The event will showcase research of high school students from all over the Philippines, including some students from Malaysia and Indonesia with topics that are relevant for community and country development. The students will also be joining engaging activities from different partners that can help them explore the STEM field, fostering a culture of learning and exploration. Teachers will also be given an opportunity to learn about the integration of technologies, most especially startup technologies, in STEM education.
We are proud to welcome the following partners and sponsors who share our vision of promoting science education and outreach:
