Immanuel Youth Innovation Series 2023
Event description
Powered by Future Anything, the Immanuel Youth Innovation Summits are back bigger and better for 2023. Designed and developed by educators alongside industry leaders, these engaging and hands-on Summits culminate in teams of students pitching their own innovative solutions to a complex, local issue.
Over the course of three days, students in Year 7-12 will hear from
some of Australia’s most inspiring changemakers, as well as explicitly developing their entrepreneurial thinking and
human-centred design skills. Culminating in a 'Shark Tank' style pitch experience on the final day, students will ideate, prototype, and pitch in response to the following mission:
"As an entrepreneur, pitch an innovative, scalable, and sustainable idea that also makes the world a better place."
The cost to participate in the program is just $20 per student (with supervisors/teachers attending free), and registration also includes breakfast and lunch for all
participants on the first day, as well as the provision of all resources to support students to make the most
out of the experience. We suggest that different students attend each of the summits.
NB Students at Immanuel College DO NOT need to book tickets through this page. Attendance for Immanuel
students will be arranged via their teacher.Â

Who should attend?
The event is designed for school groups of students in Years 7 - 12. We are seeking a broad mix of students, both in capability and talents, who would benefit from exploring entrepreneurial skills in a motivating, hands-on, engaging, and supportive environment.
If you don't yet know the names of students that will attend, please add Student 1, Student 2 etc when prompted, and you can update their details closer to the time.Â
Up to 15 student tickets per school are available. These will be allocated on a first-come,
first-served basis, but consideration will be given to ensure there is a mix of schools attending. If you
would like more tickets, please register for 15 initially and indicate that you would like to access additional tickets when prompted. We will let you know if additional tickets become available.Â
Catering
Breakfast and lunch for students will be provided on Day 1 only.  Please indicate any dietary requirements when registering. Students should bring their own snacks (if required) and lunch for days 2 and 3.  Â
Permissions and Supervision
Each participating school is required to manage parental permission requirements and ensure a suitable level of
staff supervision for their students attending the event. While participating teachers/parents will not be
required to formally facilitate the sessions, their engagement in the activities will increase teachers’
skills and confidence in unlocking students’ entrepreneurial mindset in the classroom. Students are required to complete a media permission form as this event may be filmed/photographed.Â
What Students Need to Bring:
- Their own refillable water bottle
- Lunch/snacks for Day 2 and Day 3
- An internet-enabled device (if possible), though students won't be disadvantaged if they don't have this
- A dash of enthusiasm, an open mind, and a willingness to engage with others.
Please note that students are required to wear their school uniform.
