Follow in the Footsteps of Ada Lovelace
Ada Lovelace - the world’s first computer programmer. She envisioned the potential of machines long before they existed, creating the first algorithm intended for a computer. Her collaboration with Charles Babbage on the Analytical Engine set the stage for modern computing. Ada’s trailblazing achievements remind us that with imagination and perseverance, you can pioneer new fields and make a lasting impact. For women aspiring to make their mark in technology and beyond, her story is a powerful source of inspiration.
Tu Youyou’s groundbreaking work in discovering artemisinin demonstrates how innovation can arise from blending diverse perspectives and persistent effort. By integrating traditional herbal knowledge with modern scientific methods, she created a revolutionary malaria treatment that has saved millions of lives. Her success story highlights the potential of combining creativity with rigorous research.
For students entering innovation and entrepreneurship courses, Tu Youyou’s journey serves as a powerful reminder that transformative ideas often come from exploring new approaches and staying dedicated to solving real-world problems.

Innovation is the key to shaping the future, and no one embodies this spirit better than Rosalind Franklin. Her pioneering work in DNA research—done at a time when the scientific world was largely male-dominated—has inspired generations to break barriers and think differently. Franklin's relentless curiosity, problem-solving mindset, and passion for discovery laid the groundwork for one of the most transformative breakthroughs in human history.
Just like Franklin, you have the power to make a difference, no matter your background. Our innovation courses are designed to inspire diverse minds, equipping you with the skills and mindset to solve today’s challenges and create tomorrow’s breakthroughs.
