Kids Engineer in Tohoku 2023 event held in Sendai
On November 23, 2023, PTG hosted a program as part of the Kids Engineer in Tohoku 2023 event held in Sendai, Miyagi, at the 3M Sendai City Science Museum (organized by the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan, Inc.). Entitled “Build RC cars from disassembled parts and race them!,” in this PTG program the participating children disassembled commercially sold RC cars to find out what parts they were made of, reassemble them back to their original forms, and then operate them. This gave the children first-hand experience of discovering the fun of monozukuri.
PTG remains committed to continuously expanding and improving the scope of its activities for supporting the next generation of young leaders.
