What People are Saying About Girls of Innovation!
“As chair of the CTC's Women of Innovation Planning Committee, I am thrilled that CTC is the catalyst to bring these powerful groups together to establish Girls of Innovation. The next generation--girls and boys--need to recognize women as leaders in science and technology.
That is a lesson best learned by experience. What better way to demonstrate progress than by bringing women mentors together with students with a common goal in a FIRST Robotics competition. Inspiring girls to continue their education, and ultimately pursue careers, in science and technology can only happen through exposure to creative and innovative thought in a fun and challenging setting, such as the FIRST Robotics competition.
By establishing Girls of Innovation, CTC is demonstrating once again its commitment to its mission, which benefits all of Connecticut's citizens. Girls of Innovation lives up to its name, and puts us further down the path toward a culture of innovation.”

Hank Gruner, Vice President of Programs at the Connecticut Science Center, understands the need to develop programs that will bring more middle school girls into science and technology fields. “The Connecticut Science Center feels strongly that this type of project is essential for Connecticut’s future science and technology workforce,” says Gruner, who hopes that the science center will soon be an active participant with the CT Technology Council in this type of effort.
“Spurring growth through creative invention will be a key objective of many companies in the next decade as it will provide the necessary fuel to address challenges in energy, healthcare, and global infrastructure realms. The solutions to these challenges will evolve and mature over many years and our bright and talented youth will drive the bus on this.
Our nation's mission to develop the next generation of leaders in science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics will depend on stimulating interest from our university, high school, and even elementary / middle school pupils. This program is designed to galvanize our youth around invention and creative thought.
CTC is proud to provide fuel to this program as a stimulus for innovation in our next tier of leaders.”
