Annabelle is curious about the world around her and she is already learning how to overcome your future business challenges. Become a Corporate Catalyst and inspire Annabelle to be the best she can be.
Annabelle lives in an era of enormous potential, in which science and technology are fundamentally altering her world. Her generation will be connected like never before and they will share ideas across boundaries and borders, bringing global citizens together, inspiring new innovations and fuelling change across every aspect of Annabelle’s life. But it is also an era of challenges… Climate change, population growth and food security are just some of the issues Annabelle and her generation faces today, and the only solution to these challenges is innovation. Together, we need to engage and collaborate with the wider public, to connect them with the issues that affect their lives and to encourage the next generation to embrace the opportunities of tomorrow. Join us in our vision, a world where science and technology is recognised and celebrated as central to our lives and where organisations work together to create a bright and sustainable future for young people, like Annabelle.
Become a Corporate Catalyst and help inspire Annabelle and thousands of future problem solvers
As a Corporate Catalyst, you align your company with our values and goals and have the opportunity to promote your organisation to new audiences who are socially active and culturally aware.
