What Went Down at the 21st STI NYC
The STI National Youth Convention (NYC) is now on its 21st year, opening new ideas and lessons on creativity and originality with the theme “#iWillLeadInnovation” on December 8, 2015 at the Baguio Convention Center in Baguio City. Through the convention, STI rouses the mind of modernization and innovation among the STIers which they need in today’s competitive world.
The event opens with the topic “#iWill Lead: The Innovator’s Character” which looks into the ideal innovator, his qualities, and attributes. It was followed by a talk that focuses on the variety of tools an innovator can use to become creative and constructive with the talk “#iWill Innovate: The Innovator’s Creativity.” The STI NYC concludes with “#iWill Rise: The Innovator’s Spirit” which stimulates the students’ flexibility to the ever-changing world, especially with the onslaught of the ASEAN integration that opens more opportunities on a global scale.
