As ARDVENTURE, we were pleased to host the GençTek “Oyunun e-Hâli Ankara Program”, organized within the scope of the GençTek initiative coordinated by the General Directorate of Innovation and Educational Technologies of the Ministry of National Education. The program aimed to strengthen the youth IT ecosystem and expand peer-to-peer learning models by bringing together education, technology, and gaming under one roof in Ankara.
Held at the ARDVENTURE campus, the event focused on empowering young people through technology and promoting productive, responsible engagement with digital tools. The program was attended by Mustafa Canli, Director General of Innovation and Educational Technologies; Dr. Bilgehan Özbaylanlı, Head of the R&D and Ecosystem Department; Advisors to the Deputy Minister of National Education Dr. Sümeyye Aslan and Hümeyra Güleryüz Erken, PhD; and Hüseyin Baltutar, Deputy Director of Ankara Provincial Directorate of National Education.
Implemented in collaboration with NASEF Türkiye, the program brought together more than 140 experts, teachers, and students, creating a dynamic environment centered on gaming, technology, and education. Throughout the event, participants engaged in sessions addressing:
- the role of digital games in education,
- the pedagogical impact of esports, and
- innovative approaches that support young people in meeting technology through creativity and productivity.
With its integrated structure that brings together entrepreneurship, technology, and education ecosystems, ARDVENTURE provided an interactive and experience-driven setting for knowledge sharing and collaboration.
