twimbit Youth Summit: America's Chapter

Summary

College students across the Americas take the stage for the twimbit Youth Summit's American chapter, an initiative designed to put youth voices at the center of industry conversations typically dominated by executives and analysts. The programme trains participants to research and present on issues of their choosing, then gives industries a direct channel into how the next generation actually thinks about the topics shaping their future.

Presenters take on three distinct questions: how the COVID-19 pandemic is reshaping the future of education, whether autonomous vehicles are genuinely on track to become the industry standard, and how corporate social responsibility programmes are affecting social and environmental outcomes on the ground for communities.

Rather than filtering these topics through an industry or analyst lens, the summit format lets students bring their own original research, direct observation, and generational perspective to bear on questions that will shape the markets and technologies they will eventually work within throughout their careers and beyond.
