Digital Technology Changing the World!!!
Are you interested in Technology? Are you interested in Games? Do you want to develop an online or mobile game this Summer?
Youth Venture and PETLab recently created a partnership, to give 5-10 Venturers in New York the opportunity to play a significant role in launching a game that can possibly be used to engage and recruit new Venturers Globally!!! PETLab is the first public-interest game design and research laboratory for interactive media to determine how technologies are changing the way young people learn, play, socialize, and participate in civic life.
If you are interested and need further information, please contact:
