Annual event
AI & Cyber PlayCon
Our annual STEM conference brings at-risk teens onto the UC Berkeley campus for a day of hands-on workshops with some of the world's leading AI and cybersecurity experts.
What makes PlayCon different
On a university campus
For many students it's their first time on a college campus. That matters as much as the curriculum.
Workshops, not keynotes
Small-group sessions where teens build, break, and defend alongside working professionals.
Free to attend
Sponsors and donors cover admission, meals, and transportation so cost is never the barrier.
Bring your students
Schools and youth organizations can reserve group seats. Sponsors can underwrite a whole classroom.
