“Youth innovation is a growing trend in the US, especially since the pandemic. In fact, Generation Alpha, or those born since 2010, is on track to be the most innovative and technologically-savvy generation yet. This trend, combined with the rising number of students enrolled in non-traditional K-12 learning options, is creating an environment ripe for the next generation of innovation and entrepreneurship. Two siblings in particular, Sumay and Aila Lu, are making the most of this golden era of entrepreneurial opportunity to support other learners and edupreneurs. Sumay and Aila are the creators of the WEquil App educational platform and its virtual school, WEquil School.” (08/29/24)
