Technovation is the global technology entrepreneurship program for girls and this year Julia Morgan School for Girls’ “Team Floaty Bag” presented their app, “Floaty Bag” at a showcase in Google SF. A group of students have dedicated over 40 hours over the course of three months working hard on their app that involved designing and coding an app, writing a business plan, coming up with a pitch, and more behind the scenes teamwork. They recently submitted their app to the “world judges” and this showcase was an extra opportunity for our students to show off their mobile app prototype that aspires to solve issues around global warming and pollution.
