Laura-Jane Rawlings of YEUK says “We are delighted to be a Festival Partner; we know that there are some really exciting careers in the world of Science and Technology and helping young people to get inspired about these sectors is really important. The world of work is constantly changing especially in science and technology with new developments emerging daily; jobs are being created that did not even exist 2 years ago. We need to ensure young people in the UK are inspired to develop the skills to work in these sectors. Technopop is taking on the challenge and we are excited to be part of it”.
