Wazzup Pilipinas!
The Ateneo Electronics and Computer Engineering Society (AECES) is the sole and premier organization for engineering that is home to many science and engineering majors of the Ateneo de Manila University. Throughout the years, AECES has been a family of individuals who share a passion for science and engineering. It envisions itself as a community of innovators whose primary goal is to integrate the field of innovation and technology with excellence, purpose, and service.
Last year, the AECES set off a new flagship project called "Spark Summit: Hobbyist Fair 2017" as an avenue for hobbyists to showcase their passions to the Loyola Schools (LS) community. This year, AECES makes a comeback with their revamped and remastered flagship project appropriately entitled "Spark Summit: Tech Fair 2018", giving it more of an innovation and technology vibe that AECES wants the LS community to experience and get exposed to. AECES also wants to promote awareness on the wonders of science and engineering and the call for multi-disciplinary collaboration.
Spark Summit is a three-day event that invites Ateneo students to showcase their science projects and innovation skills, to share their knowledge and design process, and to inspire the community to pursue innovation and careers in developing these kinds of technology.
Spark Summit provides an avenue for tech enthusiasts to demonstrate their innovation and technology to the entire LS community. Hoping to help inspire members of the Atenean community through showcasing engineering-related inventions and revealing the possibilities or creativity that can be found in inventing, Spark Summit is looking to achieve such an aspiring and inspiring objective by holding a competition during this three-day event. This is done by gathering participants to form teams who then present their own innovative ideas first to the organizers, and then to the world. Winners are awarded, and everyone is then recognized for their contributions to advancements of the scientific community in the Ateneo. Also found throughout the entirety of the fair, interactive booths may be visited, while talks by experts of different fields may attended. These are to help expose the LS community to the potential and current state of technology in the Philippines.
We invite all to watch sparks get set and currents get directed, and to realize that the potential of science, engineering, innovation, and technolgy in the Philippines is just starting to get amplified. So, what are you waiting for? Visit Spark Summit: Tech Fair 2018 and explore the creativity of inventing, happening on November 14-16, 2018 at Ateneo de Manila University’s Red Brick Road.
