On Friday, 27th June 2025, a gloriously sunny day in London, IET London: Savoy Place buzzed with the energy of 148 remarkable young innovators who had travelled from across the UK to showcase their groundbreaking projects. Chaos Created has been working with TeenTech since 2013, and we were thrilled to once again play a role in bringing this incredible celebration of youth innovation to life.
A Showcase of Tomorrow’s Innovators
The TeenTech Awards 2025 Final Showcase was nothing short of extraordinary. From over 1,500 initial project submissions, industry experts had carefully selected finalists whose work was consistently described by judges and visitors alike as “mind-blowing.” These young people had developed solutions designed to make life better, simpler, safer, or more fun – and their creativity and technical prowess were on full display.
What makes TeenTech special is that every finalist is already a winner. They leave the event with valuable industry contacts, new friendships, and most importantly, practical experience in developing and presenting innovative products. These are the innovators who will shape our future, and witnessing their passion and ingenuity firsthand never fails to inspire us.
Supporting the TeenTech Awards Final Showcase
We worked closely with TeenTech leading up to the day and provided on-the-day support as well.
Printed Materials That Made an Impact
We designed and produced all the printed resources for the event, including this year’s comprehensive programme. Available both as physical copies distributed on the day and as a digital resource, the programme served as both a practical guide for attendees and a lasting memento of the showcase.
Real-Time Event Coverage
We managed the live blog and social media accounts throughout the day, capturing and sharing the excitement as it unfolded. We created a dynamic mix of content – from video interviews with young innovators to behind-the-scenes photography and live updates during the winner announcements ceremony. This real-time coverage meant that schools, families, and friends who couldn’t attend in person could still experience the energy and celebrate the achievements alongside us.
Post-Event Storytelling
Working with footage captured by Leigh Emmerson from Persistence of Vision, we edited together two compelling post-event videos that beautifully encapsulated the spirit and highlights of the showcase as well as showcasing the long-term impact of the TeenTech programme.
The first film, TeenTech Awards 2025 Final Showcase – Highlights from IET London, captures the brilliant atmosphere as finalist students presented their groundbreaking projects to industry professionals. From innovative solutions to everyday problems to cutting-edge tech concepts, the video showcases the diverse range of brilliant ideas that made it to the final, while highlighting how participation has boosted students’ confidence and skills.
The second video, TeenTech Alumni in Their Own Words, features four incredible TeenTech Awards alumni – Miranda, Safa, Thamina and Charles – sharing how the programme became a launchpad for their futures. These authentic stories demonstrate the transformative impact of TeenTech, from boosting confidence to opening doors to STEM careers and opportunities they never imagined possible.
Supporting Materials
Beyond the visible elements, we also created essential supporting materials, including detailed floor plans, digital screen content, and various other resources that helped ensure the day ran seamlessly.
