 Thank you very much from the bottom of our heart. We appreciate you awarding us or honoring us with this award It helps us raise our profile and it's definitely going to help us reach girls around the world more girls around the world Increasing young girls participation in the technology sector is key to our future and a Technovation we're trying to do exactly that I forgot my prop there, but anyway, this is a phone this device right the mobile device is how more and more people in the world are going to access the internet and We've taken the connection of the mobile device to young girls and you said how can we make them? shapers and creators of the technology of tomorrow and we think we've hit a sweet spot our program has now been in Has been running for four years where we're a startup In the valley, but we're growing. We have the key metrics of the successful startup We're growing. We're scaling and our costs are so low So so that success in our mind we've reached girls in 60 countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and what we do is we empower the girls to Identify a problem in their own community and then give them the tools that they would need to solve that problem locally and When you do that when you when you shift that mindset in a young girl that find a problem and will help you solve it and in the process Will help you think like an entrepreneur? So we'll make sure that you understand that you're not the only one who's solving the problem that you should look around to see if There's competitors and if so, how are you going to get better than them? And how are you going to grow and how are you going to pitch and how are you going to present? And that process is like watching girls bloom in front of your eyes and I started off with tech innovation as a mentor four years ago Today and in the last four years. I worked Dedicated my work to making sure that the program grows as a global ambassador This three-month program has changed or at least touch lives of thousands of girls Many of them are now at university, you know We did a look back study for four years and many of those girls are now pursuing Computer science and technology role. So you think we're doing what we set out to do, but we haven't done it alone I whenever I pitch and I'm pitching just in case you're not getting it Technology has needs three things access to girls access to mentors and access to space right and The mentors are usually women who've got two or more years of work experience They have they don't have to have any technology background because the curriculum will teach them that and that the space is where businesses come in and Those three things are really making tech innovation into a movement because we've got young girls. We've got Women in companies right and we've got companies who are supporting these women You bring those things together and you've got a nice mix And then what happens is communities get together because then communities come in and say, okay We will support your regional pitch event or we'll give you money for the reception or we'll give you money for t-shirts And we're making this into a movement. So in Kenya Technification is supported by Safari comm and that was because this mix has really worked And we're hoping to replicate that around the world So at the moment we're in 60 countries with this award and with all of you movers and shakers of New York I'm going to put you all in my role of that and then reach out to you tomorrow We hope to take this program worldwide. There are a hundred and ninety three countries or a hundred and ninety four Depending on which year you're in we would like to reach every Country in the world by 2018. That's our goal And I really hope that you will help us do that and again I think the ITU and the UN women who really helped us with this award. Thank you very much
