About Us

OUR MISSION

The STEAM Innovation Challenge (STEAM IC) is a registered, Canadian, non-profit, student-led, competition dedicated to empowering the next generation of innovators by fostering creativity, collaboration, and excellence in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. The STEAM Innovation Challenge encourages sustainability in the next generation and allows students to tackle real-world problems through innovation. We strive to ignite a passion for STEAM disciplines while encouraging critical thinking, and problem-solving. Through hands-on challenges, and a spirit of competition, we aim to instill a desire for learning and a commitment to driving positive change in our communities through diversity, equity, and inclusion. We aim to nurture a new generation of leaders who will shape the future of technology, science, and innovation.
