About Acorn Aspirations
We are on a mission to bridge the digital skills gap, nurture the next generation of tech talent and fill the jobs required by the tech industry. The future success and prosperity of the economy increasingly depend on our ability to harness talent and to encourage the creativity and innovation of young people. That’s why at Acorn Aspirations we make sure that pupils from all backgrounds, particularly girls and teenagers from underrepresented communities across the UK and globally, have access to technology and entrepreneurship education. This prepares them for the next stage of their lives, be that higher education, pursuing a successful tech career or setting up their own business. Having only launched a year ago we have already worked with over 600 teenagers (aged 12-18) from diverse backgrounds including London’s most underprivileged boroughs, such as Tower Hamlets, Haringey, Tottenham Hale, Barnet, Camden and Southwark. Over 50% of Acorn Aspirations community are girls. At the heart of our mission is to improve social mobility in the digital-technology sector and ensure young people, girls in particular, from underrepresented communities are better prepared for the jobs that do not yet exist.
