Safe Surf makes staying safe at the beach easy with our inflatable rash vest and a geo-location based wristband that enables you to signal the lifeguards for fast help when needed.
James and Jesse from Matthew Flinders Anglican College in Queensland pitched their enterprise Safe Surf at the Future Anything National Grand Final, held at The Triffid in Brisbane on Tuesday 19 November 2024.
The National Grand Final is the culmination of Future Anything’s award-winning, in-curriculum Activate program. In 2024, over 7500 students and 300+ teachers in nearly 80 primary and secondary schools across Australia and New Zealand have tackled a version of the below mission: “As an entrepreneur, pitch an innovative idea that makes the world a better place.” With the support of their educators and mentors, our young innovators have taken a deep dive into a real world problem that matters to them, before ideating and prototyping an innovative, scalable and sustainable solution. As Australia’s largest youth entrepreneurship competition, our Future Anything Grand Finalists were selected from nearly 300 applications from over 600 school-age entrepreneurs who applied for this year’s National Finals.
The event was generously supported by Major Partners Advance Queensland and the Office of the Queensland Chief Entrepreneur and a host of epic organisations who contributed prizes to support the school-age entrepreneurs.
Activate is Future Anything’s immersive in-curriculum program that builds enterprising mindsets in every classroom.
Over a Term or Semester in Primary and Secondary schools, Activate builds future capabilities and integrates fully with mainstream curriculum delivery as an assessable unit of work in Business, Science, STEM, English, Design Technologies, Humanities, HPE & Religion classrooms.
With supported educators leading future-ready curriculum, together, we can bend the future; one youth-led idea at a time.
Every Activate student has the opportunity to apply for the Future Anything National Grand Finals.
