FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

One of the most visible technical innovations of the last 50 years, the Concorde, is the backdrop for the launch of this year’s SciTech, an exposition showcasing the creativity and inventiveness of science students and professional scientists and researchers.
 
The launch of SciTech 2010, under the auspices of the National Council for Science and Technology (NCST), takes place this Thursday, March 4th at 11 am at the Barbados Concorde Experience at Grantley Adams International Airport, and previews the expo being held at the Gymnasium March 11th to 14th.
 
The showcase highlights the need to focus on science and technology, and its critical role in national development, as Barbadians use their talents to add to the explosion of high tech gadgets and resources coming on the global market.
 
SciTech 2010, which has moved from its previous home of Sherbourne, is open to the public from 10 am to 8 pm each day, and while the focus is on the development of new ideas by school students, will also feature entertainment by Barbadian artists, who themselves are using the technologies available to their own profession. Innovative creations will be on display from students at a wide range of secondary schools, and also from Project Discovery, a scientific group that will for the first time, use the combined resources of students from different secondary schools on one project.
 
This year one of the featured exhibitors will be Toon Boom, a premier animation company which produced the animation for Disney’s “The Princess and The Frog” and the Fox Network show, “The Simpsons”. Toon Boom held its first animation workshop in Barbados late last year.
 
The Barbadian professional scientific community will be represented by organizations like the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology, The Barbados Astronomical Society, and the Chronic Disease Research Centre
 
SciTech 2010: Barbadian creativity, innovation and research, that will convince both young and adult visitors to the 4-day exposition, starting March 11th, that “Science is Kewl and SciTech rules”
