Week 5 Newsletter

Hello everybody to our weekly newsletter! We are on Week 3 of the Technovation Curriculum! In this update we will talk about team forming one last time, provide you with a weekly checklist, and introduce you to the host of our next location. You are in for a treat!

👥 Teams
This is the last call to fill out our Teams Google form. We will be closing the form on Friday to finalise the teams. If you are still looking for a team or team members, please fill out the form! We will send out team confirmation next week. So watch out for those!

✅ Checklist
We created a Week 3 Checklist for you based on the curriculum. These Weekly Checklists will help you stay on track by covering all the milestones your team should be striving to reach each week.

📆 Our next workshop will be on March 2nd! 

Time: 10:00am - 4:00 pm
Location: GHD, 455 Phillip St. Waterloo, one of the former RIM buildings close to UWaterloo!

We are so excited about our new partnership! GHD’s office space is way cool! It follows the new model of agile workplaces. We are very fortunate to be able to hold our workshop here:

Although GHD is an engineering, architecture and construction company, they also support technology and digital innovation through GHD Digital. Some product examples include GovstackTM - a digital platform to help municipalities better connect and serve their community, GHD NavigatorTM - Environment, health safety and sustainability reimagined, and GHD OCC AssistTM - Artificial intelligence meets pipeline automation. GHD’s work is very much aligned with our own scope

GHD’s WING ERG (Woman in GHD) is excited to meet with our Technovation Girls!

On our agenda is business planning for our seniors, a presentation of Minimum Viable Product (MVP), paper prototyping and user testing, as well as a presentation of the learning journey part 1 (soft skills).

To attend, please RSVP here: Technovation Girls Working Session #2. Parents and siblings are welcome to join! (Please cancel your registration if you can’t come! Otherwise, you may take  a spot from another girl!)
