Sakura*, Age 13, Founder

Sakura loved visiting cafés but was frustrated by long, inconvenient lines that often ate into her break time and diminished the experience. To solve this, she designed a mobile-based queuing system that lets customers reserve a spot virtually, receive real-time updates, and get notified when it’s their turn. Her solution helps busy café goers save time and reduces congestion to make everyday moments more efficient and enjoyable. 

Mika*, Age 13, Founder

Mika loved nail design but found it difficult to apply or maintain polish, especially with school rules nad family restrictions. She created a modular nail jewelry line with interchangeable, polish-free designs that slip on and off with ease. Her innovation makes self-expression accessible and rule-friendly by blending creativity with everyday practicality.

Hiroto*, Age 11, Founder

Hiroto noticed that his pencil lead often ran out during class, disrupting his focus and participation. He designed a digital pencil casing that tracks remaining lead, displays a countdown on a mini screen, and gives a gentle alert before it runs out. By blending simple tools with smart technology, Hiroto created a solution that helps students stay prepared, engaged, and manage their time, ideal for classrooms of the future.
