Programming Summer Camp 2019

The GMO Internet Group aims to enhance programming education at elementary and junior high schools in Shibuya, which is promoted in cooperation with Shibuya-based Tokyu Corporation, IT companies (CyberAgent, DeNA, and mixi), and the Shibuya City Board of Education. We are participating in the Kids VALLEY Future Learning Project to create a foundation in Shibuya to raise the talent needed in the next generation.

As part of this initiative, we have held an event Programming Summer Camp 2019 during the summer vacation as programming education will be compulsory at elementary schools in 2020.
