The Prince’s Trust Cymru Digital Skills Festival 2023, sponsored by Admiral, successfully tackled the digital skills gap among young people in Wales. Bykov-Brett Enterprises contributed significantly through workshops on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the metaverse, inspiring over 100 participants with cutting-edge insights and hands-on experiences. This event marked a crucial step in equipping the next generation with essential digital skills for future careers in the tech industry.
The Prince’s Trust Cymru, in collaboration with Admiral, launched the Digital Skills Festival 2023 to address the growing digital skills gap in Wales. As part of this initiative, Bykov-Brett Enterprises played a key role by delivering specialised workshops focused on AI and the metaverse. These workshops were designed to inspire and educate young people aged 16-30, providing them with the tools and knowledge to navigate the rapidly evolving digital landscape.
The festival aimed to address several key challenges:
Bykov-Brett Enterprises contributed to overcoming these challenges through two key workshops:
AI Workshop: This session provided an introduction to AI, covering its potential applications and impact on various industries. Participants learned how AI can be leveraged for innovation and were introduced to basic AI concepts and tools.
Metaverse Workshop: Focused on the emerging concept of the metaverse, this workshop explored its implications for the future of digital interaction. Participants gained insights into virtual environments, decentralized web technologies, and the potential for new business models within the metaverse.
Both workshops were designed to be interactive and engaging, allowing participants to explore these advanced technologies in a hands-on environment.
The festival achieved notable success, particularly through the workshops on AI and the metaverse:
The AI and metaverse workshops delivered by Bykov-Brett Enterprises were pivotal to the success of the Digital Skills Festival 2023. By providing young people with hands-on experience and deep insights into these advanced technologies, the workshops not only addressed immediate educational needs but also sparked long-term interest in digital careers.
"I was made to feel welcome and it was good to finally meet Prince's Trust staff face to face and talk with everyone there. I struggled with communication and confidence at the last festival, but this one I felt much better. I also really enjoyed the metaverse talk. It was really insightful.”
