The World Bank Group (WBG) Youth Summit 2024 is set to revolutionize the discussion on technology and digital transformation, aiming to drive global progress by engaging young minds, experts, and stakeholders in shaping a more inclusive and sustainable world. At the heart of the Summit is the Pitch Competition, a platform designed to showcase impact-driven technology solutions that tackle challenges faced by youth in conflict-affected areas, promote women’s participation in the tech industry, and enhance digital inclusion for rural youth.
The competition seeks to reward the most innovative ideas with the potential to make a tangible difference in the world. The 2024 Pitch Competition, organized by the WBG Youth Summit, offers a unique opportunity for youth worldwide to present their creative solutions to pressing global issues through a pitch deck format. Submissions are welcome from individuals aged 18-35, irrespective of their background, who are passionate about addressing themes such as bridging the digital divide, using artificial intelligence for positive impact, and promoting sustainable technology practices.
