Very close to the start of the Summer STEM Academy, and we wanted to renew our participation again this year. The event, which will be held from 30 August to 3 September, represents a unique opportunity for the selected students: it combines training on STEM subjects, the promotion and enhancement of gender diversity, in-depth studies on soft skills and group activities.
The technical-scientific topics on which the event is based are perfectly integrated with our knowledge and passions: this is why, once again this year, Tommaso De Marchi, our Chief Operation Officer, has chosen to share a current topic with the students. and as innovative as blockchain technology.
In particular, Tommaso will focus on the evolution of blockchain technology in recent years by addressing current and innovative issues such as cryptocurrencies, NFTs and the so-called digital citizenship.
What do we expect from the Summer STEM Academy?
Participating in the Summer STEM Academy means, first of all, offering our contribution in the training of young people who are passionate about science, bringing added value to the life of the community thanks to the collaboration with valuable realities of our territory.
We asked Tommaso what he expects from the event:
“Last year’s teaching at the Summer STEM Academy allowed me to get involved, rediscovering a new role and a new way of approaching myself, different from the corporate context. I had the opportunity to interact with attentive, curious and prepared young people who were able to grasp the main ideas of the subject dealt with. This year, the topic covered concerns blockchain technology and its applications: I am confident to find in front of me people who are interesting and passionate about these current issues. The hope is to be able to convey curiosity, passion and desire to deepen, in a context that is also new to me like a classroom. “
