About this Event

The World Digital Fest Summit is an international student technology showcase where young innovators present their coding, AI, and digital projects at a world-class venue.

Students present their projects through interactive booths, explain their ideas to visitors, and interact with educators, parents, and guests. This experience helps students build confidence, creativity, teamwork, and real-world communication skills.

The summit also includes a formal stage session with keynote talks, recognitions, and awards.

Participation in this event provides early exposure to university-level innovation culture. By presenting real projects, students gain portfolio-ready experience and develop skills commonly referenced in future academic, scholarship, and career-related applications.
Participation does not guarantee university admission.

Parents, educators, and guests are welcome to attend the event.
