The Girls STEAM Institute's 2024 Business Challenge is set to empower young women in the rapidly growing fields of XR (Extended Reality) and AI. As we look towards the future of these industries, the statistics are compelling: By 2030, the global XR market is projected to reach $1.5 trillion, with a compound annual growth rate of 62.7%. This explosive growth is creating a surge in career opportunities, with XR-related jobs expected to increase by 39% annually. In the AI sector, job postings have risen by 450% since 2013, with demand for AI skills outpacing supply by 2.5 times. The Girls STEAM Institute's challenge addresses this opportunity by engaging participants in creating innovative XR and AI solutions for real-world problems. Mentors, parents, and educators play a crucial role in supporting these young innovators. The program offers resources and guidance to help adults nurture STEAM skills and entrepreneurial mindsets in the next generation of tech leaders. Join us Thursday and Saturday in ENGAGE XR for an Open House touring examples of the possible in STEAM/STEM VR experiences. https://zurl.co/sCb3 Saturday, Girls STEAM Institute alum Prabhleen Kaur Lamba, AI and Computer Engineering student at Carnegie Mellon Univ. and intern at Uber is sharing her insights on mentoring teens in STEAM. https://zurl.co/hjB0 Following her, Dr. Angelina Dayton, executive director and lead scientist at the Virtual World Society, will discuss the impact of AI on education and future careers. She spent the last year supporting one of the first AI only run classes. The Girls STEAM Institute is not just about technology; it's about shaping the future workforce. With women currently representing only 26% of AI professionals globally, programs like the Girls STEAM Institute are vital for increasing diversity and inclusion in these high-growth fields. By participating in this challenge, young women are positioning themselves at the forefront of industries that are transforming our world and creating exciting career paths for the future. These sessions are free and available to the public. If you are a parent, mentor, teacher, or passionate supporter of women in the workplace, come join us!
