The first one, for those between the ages of 13 to 15, aims to build a strong foundation in programming and game

development.

The second, tailored for those aged 16-18, offers the opportunity to explore advanced concepts in game development
and design.

The programme serves as a dynamic platform to explore game development in an educational environment, blending
learning and recreation.

It also encourages collective work and enhances team spirit, while cultivating entrepreneurial and creative thinking.

Participants are encouraged to develop innovative ideas and practical solutions that align with current market trends
and demands.

The camp is organised under the supervision of specialised trainers in game development, aiming to enhance
students’ skills in programming and project development aspects.

Acting CEO of the Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development, Mouza Al Nasri, said, “The camp is much more than just
an educational programme, rather it aims to foster a dynamic environment that contributes to enhancing creativity,

developing technical skills, teamwork, and entrepreneurial thinking, while enabling participants to gain game

development experience. Such an approach empowers Emirati youth to hone their skills and develop innovative
ideas. This further aligns with our vision to promote innovation in Abu Dhabi, recognising its vital role in strengthening

the small and medium-sized enterprise ecosystem, especially within the realm of game development. The camp will

also prepare students for freelance and future career opportunities in the gaming sector.”

Since its launch in 2020, the summer camp has attracted the participation of 750 Emirati students across its intensive

training programmes.

Participants were even awarded a prestigious training certificate from Stanford University, reflecting the superior
quality of the training.

The Khalifa Fund invites ambitious young minds to leverage this valuable opportunity and become a part of an
inspiring educational journey.
