On March 21, 2025, at the co-creation facility QUINTBRIDGE in Kyobashi, Osaka, an event titled “Future Leaders Take on the Challenge! Junior High School Students and Professionals Envision the Future of AI Research – Interactive Presentation & Special Talk” was held. This event was a joint initiative by Shitennoji Junior High School (Osaka) and the General Incorporated Association AWESOME, aiming to cultivate the next generation of female leaders.
In this program, four female researchers from RIKEN AIP participated, and the students deepened their exploration of a future coexisting with AI through interviews with these researchers.
During the presentation session, each team conducted presentations and poster sessions, providing an opportunity to gain new perspectives through dialogue with the audience.
Furthermore, awards were presented by various companies and organizations, with the RIKEN AIP Award being granted to Team Pearl for their presentation titled “A Healthy Future for All Living Beings.” This award recognized their efforts to learn from the perspectives required of researchers, engage in independent inquiry, and challenge themselves to envision the future.
