Purpose

Y:WAIT is an organisation dedicated to empowering young girls by focusing on the real-world application of knowledge through mentorship and networking opportunities. Rather than following the traditional approach of offering technical workshops and coding classes, we prioritize personal guidance, recognizing that one-on-one mentorship and building a supportive network can lead to deeper, more meaningful growth. We believe that connecting young girls with experienced mentors provides them with the tools to navigate challenges, think critically, and apply their skills effectively in diverse settings. Our approach fosters confidence and helps translate their potential into real, tangible impacts in their personal and professional lives. 

Target Audience​

Young girls who have an interest in STEM, AI and Technology, or would like to explore these related stem fields and get the opportunity to develop their skills further. We also cater to special interest groups like ICT Clubs, Robotics Clubs, Science Clubs, STEM-oriented Clubs and Innovation Programmes.

What you can expect

Seminars & Webinars

To make our seminars and webinars about AI and technology interesting for young women, Y:WAIT chooses engaging and knowledgeable presenters, and to cover topics that are relevant and interesting to young women! We also incorporate interactive elements such as live polls, Q&A sessions, and group discussions to make them more interesting.

These seminars and webinars can benefit young women by providing a platform for learning and development. They can gain new skills, knowledge, and insights that can be useful in their personal and professional lives. These also provide opportunities for them to network and connect with others who have similar interests in AI and technology.

International Events

Y:WAIT hosts international events that teach young women about AI, by providing them with an overview of the basics of AI and its applications in various fields. They can also explore the ethical and societal implications of AI, and discuss the potential future developments in this field. Lastly, they provide young women with insights into the global AI landscape and how AI is being used and developed in different countries around the world.

These international events, such as our AI World Summit, can benefit young women by providing them with valuable insights about global issues and trends. They can also provide opportunities for networking and connecting with others from different countries and cultures. They can be conducted in a variety of ways, depending on the size and scope of the event. In-person events typically involve attendees traveling to a specific location, while online events can be attended virtually from anywhere in the world.

Company Visits

Y:WAIT plans company visits that are engaging and interactive, and selects companies that are relevant and interesting to young women. Incorporating elements such as tours of the company facilities, demonstrations of the company’s products or services, and opportunities to meet and talk with employees can help make the visit more fulfilling.

Our company visits can be beneficial to young women as they provide them with practical information and inspiration for their future careers. They not only help young women learn about the different career opportunities available in a particular industry, but also allow them to network and make connections with employees at the company.

Certification Programmes

At Y:WAIT, we celebrate the achievements of empowering and successful women who have made a significant impact in their respective industries through our awards program. These awards recognize women who have not only excelled professionally but have also paved the way for others, inspiring future generations to pursue their passions with confidence. By highlighting their journeys, we aim to showcase the diverse paths to success and the importance of resilience, leadership and innovation. These women serve as role models, demonstrating that with determination and the right support, it’s possible to break barriers and create lasting change. 

Talks / Workshops

We organise courses and workshops specially for young girls to attend AI courses and workshops in a simplified way – because the field of AI is growing rapidly, and there is a need for a diverse range of perspectives and experiences in the field.

Our programme enriches young girls to learn the basics of how AI works, the different applications of AI in the real world, and the ethical and societal implications of AI. Amongst many other benefits, these AI courses and workshops can benefit young girls by introduce them to role models and mentors in the field, and give them the opportunity to network with other girls who are interested in AI.

Mentorship Programmes

To connect girls with mentors who are passionate about AI, we conduct mentorship programmes that provide personalized guidance and support from experienced professionals in the field, which can help the girls develop their skills and knowledge of AI. The programme typically involves interaction where the mentor provides guidance, support, and advice to the mentee on topics including the mentee’s goals, challenges, and experiences, as well as advice and strategies for success in the mentee’s chosen field.

The mentors from around the globe have diverse backgrounds in terms of their education, experience, and expertise, varying from banking to venture capital to finance.They serve as role models and empower the girls to pursue their own interests in the field, while also helping them build a network of connections in the industry, which is valuable for their future careers.

Networking Sessions

Y:WAIT organises networking sessions for young girls to provide the opportunity to connect with other young women who are interested in AI and learn from their experiences and perspectives. These sessions provide the girls with exposure to role models and mentors in the field, and can inspire them to pursue their own interests in AI.

The girls will be able to build a network of contacts and connections in the AI industry as well as form new ideas and perspectives to learn about the latest developments in AI. By attending these networking sessions, we hope that young girls are also able to be exposed to new opportunities for collaboration within the AI community.
