Since 2014, Brilliant Labs has supported the empowerment of Atlantic Canadian youth from all walks of life to learn how to create and innovate, think critically and problem-solve with today’s technology and a socially entrepreneurial mindset.
Brilliant Labs was the vision of a group of entrepreneurs who wanted to transform Atlantic Canada from a natural resource-based economy to a more sustainable knowledge-based economy. To do this, they travelled to Finland and Estonia to learn how schools were introducing students to learn with technology with the hope of transforming their economies.
The shift to more hands-on, experiential learning and exposure to technology is ongoing. Today, Brilliant Labs operates in all four Atlantic Canadian provinces, with passionate community partners in both the public and private sectors.
Brilliant Labs is leading by example by engineering its prototyping hardware and cloud services. The b.Board is designed to be an accessible fun interactive device for creators, researchers and inventors of all ages. It helps bring IoT, robotics or other hardware project ideas from concept to reality fast!
In the past 3 months Brilliant Labs has been focusing on its expansion into the community of Cyberville. With After School Programs, community partnerships, and a passionate community, the Cyberville expansion has revolutionized the community
