Think Big are updating their brand identity to ensure they stay fresh and relevant to young people. This is work in progress and they are looking to illustrators to help develop the artwork that will ensure that the young people and their projects are the heroes of the new look and feel.

Currently pursuing a PhD researching Computer Science Education in the UK, Kurt believes that every young person has the right to be a 'future techie' regardless of where they come from and their educational background.

After teaching himself to code, Kurt founded the social enterprise Future Techies with the support of Think Big. Future Techies delivers hands-on workshop sessions using the latest web tools, programming softwares and technologies such as 3D printers, virtual reality headsets, robotics and motion sensors to inspire young people in schools and community centres, especially those in ‘disadvantaged’ areas that need it most.

The Vehicle of Mass Inclusion (VEOMI) project is the latest addition to Future Techies’ portfolio, dubbed the “ice cream van of technology”, it aims to further promote digital inclusivity by reaching more young people with a mobile technological resource.

TaskTide (formerly known as 3WTasks) is a social network designed to tackle youth unemployment.

In Spain alone less than 50% of young people are employed. This is a social issue that impacts everyone. And although there are already many platforms and apps seeking to address this, the problem is the immediacy in which people can both find employment and those requiring those skills, can connect with each other.

Driven by creating ways to help young people find work and opportunities, Manolo launched TaskTide (3WTasks), an app which focuses on providing a quick, reliable and local solution. Imagine you need your computer fixing urgently, the app lets you find a person with the right skills, just around the corner from you to solve the problem. You have your problem solved and a young person has gained valuable experience and employment in seconds.

Worldwide, more than 11.5 million people have a disease, or a neurological disorder which means they cannot communicate. They're trapped inside their own world. Meritxell, a neurological psychologist, was inspired by her uncle who suffered from a neurological condition, to give a voice to those who cannot be heard.

Picto Connection is an application based on the use of pictograms for children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) with the aim of enhancing direct communication with others. The system has been designed to meet the functional diversity of these people on cognitive, visual and auditory levels from infancy to adulthood. In less than 24 hours after the initial publication of the demo version of the app, Meri and her team captured the interest of a care center for children with ASD keen to work on developing the project.
