Future Builders Live. A premium stage for the kids the future is counting on.
A ticketed family event series where kids experience inspiring short talks, hands-on demos, and student show-and-tell — produced to a standard families actually want and presenters are proud to stand behind.
Think: TED-style inspiration for kids (without using the TED brand) crossed with a maker fair, science fair, and youth leadership showcase.
The problem
- Parents want enrichment beyond screens, sports, and tutoring.
- Kids want to build, present, explore tech, and see what's possible.
- Local experts and companies want to support youth learning — but lack a polished, family-friendly platform.
The solution
- Short inspirational talks + student-led presentations.
- Robotics, AI, coding, design, science, entrepreneurship demos.
- Premium venue · paid presenters · ticketed family attendance · sponsor-supported economics.
- Parents stay on-site — family learning, not drop-off childcare.
Sample format · 2.5–3 hr Saturday
- 3 short adult talks
- 4–6 student show-and-tell presentations
- 1 featured demo or keynote
- Hands-on demo stations · parent/student networking
- Sponsor tables and future-workshop sign-ups
Revenue model
- Family ticket sales
- Local sponsors (ed, tech, health, finance)
- Demo / vendor tables
- Premium workshops post-event
- Family memberships (early access + discounts)
120-person event → $5,000–$7,500+ revenue
Covers venue, AV, staffing, insurance, snacks, marketing, presenters.
Why it works
This is not another kids' activity. It gives families something higher-status and more inspiring: a place where kids can see big ideas, meet real builders, practice public speaking, show what they made, and imagine future careers. It also gives communities a new platform for youth talent, local expertise, and sponsor visibility.
