Who runs the world? Girls do. That was clear at the fourth annual Ottawa Technovation Challenge Pitch Competition, where nine teams out of 38 Ottawa-area schools pitched empowering and innovative mobile apps in the finals at Carleton University. The Technovation Challenge is a global mentoring and skill-learning program that gives girls the opportunity to learn basic coding, marketing and business development. After 12 weeks of product development and working with mentors, a Carleton theatre brimmed with excitement as the girls in elementary and high school made their final pitches to teachers, parents and judges.
