ASSETs+ event at BBG School

This event aimed at young students, within the framework of the Tech4Kids initiative, paved the way for future developments of the project focused on Tech4Youth.

Last August 24, a hundred secondary students from Next Baltorp Business Gymnasium (BBG), in Ballerup, Denmark, dove headfirst into the captivating world of the defence industry with talks from – among others – CEO Dan Hermansen from Mydefence and CEO Steven Friberg from UXV Technologies, in collaboration with Forsvarsministerets Materiel og indkøbsstyrelse and Forsvarets Personalestyrelse.

Afterwards, the students had the opportunity to visit DALO Industry Days -the largest exhibition in Denmark of equipment primarily from the defence industry-, where they got to explore everything from the tiniest screws and bolts to complete military vehicles.

Tech4Kids is an innovative ASSETs+ project activity that aims to introduce children to the exciting world of aerospace and defence by allowing them to explore and learn about the technologies used in these industries.
