That's why we show you how 10+ technologies - AI, robotics, the Internet of Things, 3D printing, VR etc - and economic trends will affect our careers, and how you can thrive amid them!
Build the game plan for your life
By the end of the 7-Day Bootcamp, you'll be clear on your career & life goals and what skills, knowledge and education you need to achieve them. You'll have a roadmap with actionable next steps (internships, uni, job, etc) - whether your aim is getting that dream job or starting a company one day. It covers up to 10 years & is adaptable over time!
Use what you love to make a difference
If you want to have a long & purposeful career that is well-paid, it usually requires that you solve big problems for a group of people. We give you a snapshot of current social, economic & environmental problems. We also show you how tech can be used to help solve these problems. You pick 1-3 that you want to further explore in your career.

FAQs
-
Do I need to have perfect grades in school to be eligible for this program?While we certainly appreciate everyone who has amazing high school grades, that is not a must-have criterion. What is important is that you have a genuine interest in the program (including ideally technology, business, politics or entrepreneurship), an emerging set of interests and passions, and that you are willing to learn.
-
Is this program only focused on careers in the tech or business sector?No. The program's goal is not to push you into a STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) or business career - we want you to pursue YOUR interests and build out YOUR strengths, which is why the outcome of this program is highly personalised for everyone. If you want to become an artist who works with oil paint, an actor in a theatre, or anything that seems not related to tech at first, we will help you develop your plan to achieve that. The reason why we nevertheless teach about technology trends is because no matter your field of interest, it will be affected by tech! Yes, even as an artist who is painting with oil colours. If you don't know how to take advantage of technology in your particular field and what to watch out for, you'll be at a disadvantage. We therefore provide you with all the information and strategies you need to make an informed decision, identify how you might be able to leverage tech even in a non-tech career, and the skills to navigate your future career jungle seamlessly.
-
Will I need a laptop to participate in the program?Yes - a lot of the exercises we do as part of the program will require you to be able to research areas of your interest quickly.
-
In which languages are the bootcamps held?We currently offer our bootcamps in English and German.
-
Do I receive a certificate for completing the bootcamp?Yes, everyone receives a digital and printed certificate!
-
Do I need to live in Luxembourg to be able to participate?For our Virtual Bootcamps, you do not need to live in Luxembourg, as it can be taken 100% online. However for the City Bootcamps, which take place in Luxembourg City, we do recommend living within max. 1h from the city center, or finding a way to stay with friends who live nearby. We currently do not offer accommodation, so it is most convenient if you are able to go back home in time after each day.
