"New Person" on Sci-High — episode 4: the partners
Episode four of the "New Person" series — the voices of the partners: universities, corporate sponsors and NGOs that make the programme sustainable.
Episode four asks: why do universities, corporate partners and NGOs choose to support a programme for teenagers? What do they find in Sci-High?
In the conversation:
- What a faculty gains by opening its doors to students aged 11–18.
- Why, for a corporate partner, Sci-High is “a talent investment”, not charity.
- How Sci-High and MIT met — the story behind the mentor channel.
- What “the currency” of partnership is — money, expertise, time, space — and how Sci-High balances among them.
