Our Values

The Festival is very proud of its core values. We are passionate to explain to young people that science and technology is in everything we do, every day. We advocate for investing in STEM education as one of  - if not the  - most effective way to build a secure socio-economic environment for everyone regardless of race, creed, gender or personal beliefs. We feel that it is everyone 's job  - not just teachers  - to spark that sustained level of excitement for science and engineering into the minds of young people.  We subscribe to the principles of selflessly giving back to San Diego as a way to ensure our community 's growth potential and quality of life. We lead by example in developing partnerships and initiatives that will advance this cause.
