Dynamik Technologies recently received the prestigious Equality and Education Access Award at the ESG Business Awards 2024 held at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.
The company was celebrated for its ‘Brunei Kids Can Code (BKCC)’ programme, an initiative that equips the younger generation with the skills, confidence, and opportunity to change the world through coding.
Present to receive the award on behalf of Dynamik Technologies was Chief Executive Officer Haslina Taib. In her acceptance speech, she stated, “This initiative is more than just teaching digitally relevant skills—it’s about making technology accessible, creating opportunities and inspiring a digital future where every child contribute to solving our everyday problems, and inspiring a generation that will lead the way in innovation.”
She added further, “I am incredibly proud of our team and our young coding members; and I am grateful to the ESG Business Awards and the esteemed judges for recognizing our vision. Together, we are bridging the gap to meet our industry’s needs, opening doors to a future where technology and education create endless possibilities and enabling the achievement of a digital economy.”
Also attending the award event were Faizul Yahya and Adilah Izzati Haji Suhaimi from Dynamik Technologies, both of whom have been instrumental in championing the Brunei Kids Can Code programme.
The ESG Business Awards recognises and celebrates companies that lead the way in building a sustainable future. The awards programme honours businesses that demonstrate outstanding commitment and achievement in environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices.
The BKCC programme was launched by Dynamik Technologies in September 2020, with the objective of introducing young students across Brunei Darussalam to the world of coding through engaging, educational game-based and hands-on activities. BKCC plays a crucial role in nurturing a talent pipeline for the ICT industry by sparking an early interest in coding amongst students. BKCC targets to unlock their potential in the digital realm, foster creativity, enhance problem-solving abilities and develop computational thinking. Additionally, the programme strives to boost students’ confidence and improve their communication skills through presentations and knowledge sharing.
BKCC has fostered strong community involvement by engaging parents, teachers, and local organizations in supporting ICT education for youth. This collaborative effort has created a supportive ecosystem that further enhances the program’s reach and effectiveness and Dynamik Technologies will work closely with stakeholders to ensure the sustainability of the programme.
