A Week That Changed How I See the World

Attending the Young Changemakers Bootcamp (YCB) was one of the most exciting experiences of my life. I joined the program with curiosity and a little nervousness, but by the end of the week, I had learned more than I ever expected.

Each day was filled with something new, from learning how to make business models and tell better stories, to exploring AI, nanotechnology, and drones. One session that really inspired me was with Prof. V. Ramagopala Rao, where we learned about amazing new research in nanotechnology and how innovations can help solve real problems.

The AI and Figma workshops were super fun! We got to try hands-on activities; designing apps, understanding how technology works, and seeing how math connects with machine learning. I also enjoyed the sessions on creative problem solving and business model creation, where we learned how to turn an idea into something practical and impactful.

Apart from the sessions, what made YCB special were the people. I met so many bright students, kind mentors, and inspiring speakers who shared their stories and experiences. We supported each other, worked together, and became good friends by the end.

Looking back, YCB was more than just a bootcamp. It opened my mind, helped me think differently, and made me believe that anyone, no matter how young can make a difference. I am really thankful to my teachers and the organizers for giving me this amazing opportunity. It's an experience I will always remember!
