On 27th August 2026, we ran our very first Connect event, the culmination of our Launch Academy pilot programme.
The young people on the programme showcased the project they have been working on, shared their experiences of navigating the jobs market, and connected with employers and professionals.
Congratulations to all of the young people who took part, they did an awesome job of demonstrating their skills, confidence and potential. And a huge thank you to the employers and Equal Opportunity Ambassadors who joined us to make this event a meaningful experience.
The video below shows the highlights of the event, and contains interviews with young people and professionals about why Babbasa matters to them, and to the city.
