Students from pilot schools participating in Tbilisi’s and nearby regions – Shida Kartli, Kvemo Kartli, Kakheti, and Mtskheta-Mtianeti – showcased their STEAM projects during the competition.

The innovative works of the students were carefully reviewed by international expert Professor Jeffrey Nowak. “This competition revealed the great talent and potential of Georgian students; participants should use this experience as motivation to constantly work on personal development and effectively solve the problems around them,” Professor Jeffrey Nowak addressed the students.
