Ben Southworth has launched the website for the
Ada Lovelace Academy which wants to train the next generation of entrepreneurs in Hackney, giving them the skills to succeed in the new digital age.
The Academy is looking for a home and will teach children aged 16 - 19, hopefully opening in 2015.
The skills on offer will be: -
- Design & Digital Comms
- Entrepreneurship
- Business Skills
- Presentation Skills
- Latest Technologies
- A sense of community
Ben has already been involved with education designing courses for both
General Assembly and
Decoded. He spent a year with Government being the Deputy CEO of TCIO (or as it known now as
TechCityUK) and now is on several boards.
This is a great initiative and anyone wanting to help should contact Ben. It's also possible to donate on the site itself.
