We proudly celebrate the outstanding achievements of our Batangas State University โ The National Engineering University scholars who participated in the Ideathon and Hackathon of the Young Banatao Learning Lab (YBLL) powered by FactSet 3.0, held on August 10โ15, 2026 at the FactSet Office, McKinley West, Taguig City.
Managed by the Innotrep Program of PhilDev, the YBLL serves as a platform for PhilDev scholars to transform their knowledge and skills in technopreneurship, data science, engineering, and technology into innovative solutions to real-world challenges.
This culminating activity showcased not only the participantsโ technical capabilities, but also their growth in innovation, teamwork, communication, and pitching as they presented their ideas before experts in the fields of Data Science, Engineering, and Technopreneurship.
