Heroes do not always wear capes. More often, they come in their usual daily ordinary outfits. Although as mundane they are, their innovative service to the community has helped healed wounds, fed the hungry, and saved lives. We would like to express our appreciation for their efforts, particularly during these difficult global pandemic times. They are the ambassadors of innovations.
The Philippine Robotics Team, through Data Science and Technology Corporation, in partnership with Weeemake Robots
The Weeemake Innovation Ambassador Awards is an online award-giving event that aims to recognize the noble efforts of the youth, mentors, and institutions in helping community members to cope up with the harsh blow being dealt by the Covid19 crisis in the country. The people and institutions that the organization wishes to recognize are innovators who have helped rebuilt-lives, promoted living and learning continuity, and reached out to the marginalized sectors of the society in their own unique ways. Hence, they are to be awarded as innovation ambassadors
