The organisation began its activities in 2002 as a non-profit organisation with the aim of creating opportunities for children to create and express themselves and to nurture their imaginative powers.
To date, we have held approximately 3,000 workshops across the country, in which about 600,000 children have participated. In 2022, the organisation celebrated its 20th anniversary.
“B Lab,” taking the initials from “Beyond, Borderless, Breakthrough,” is a participatory platform aimed at connecting universities, research institutes, regions, and talents worldwide under the guise of a research institute. It integrates the expertise and knowledge of many individuals, fostering the creation of new technologies, services, content, businesses, and societies. Despite its wide scope encompassing technology development, solving social issues, and generating new services, the common thread lies in societal implementation, emphasizing collective creation. It strives to match challenges, ideas, technologies, funds, skills, and people, fostering an interesting future from small to large creations, all created together.
