Second "EGG JAM Fes" to be Held in Osaka on July 26, Featuring Event Planning and Operation by Junior High and High School Students

Participate in the Event

EGG JAM, a student community operated by Hero Egg Inc., a group company of Meta Heroes Inc., will hold its second "EGG JAM Fes," a technology experience event for elementary and junior high school students and their guardians, on Sunday, July 26, 2026, at the Innovation Design Education and Research Center, Osaka Institute of Technology, Umeda Campus.

At this event, children will experience the joy of bringing their own ideas to life through activities such as AI-powered game creation, VR table tennis, and creating keychains with a 3D printer. The content is designed to be accessible even for beginners, aiming not only to learn about technologies like AI and VR but also to provide an opportunity to think about future learning, communities, and lifestyles.

This festival will be planned and operated primarily by junior high and high school students. It is an event where participants can enjoy the experience while turning their "desire to try" into action, taking a step towards creating their future.

A Place for Children to Experience AI and Technology and Bring Their Ideas to Life

"EGG JAM Fes" is an event that expands children's creativity through experiences with AI, VR, 3D printers, and game creation.

On the day of the event, programs will be conducted that allow participants to touch upon the latest technologies such as AI, 3DCG, and esports, while shaping their own ideas and thinking about future towns and lifestyles. The structure is designed so that participants can feel the learning as their own through experiences of "trying to create," "playing and thinking," and "presenting," rather than just knowing the technology.

EGG JAM Fes Planned and Operated Primarily by Junior High and High School Students

This EGG JAM Fes will be planned and operated primarily by junior high and high school students.

Another feature is that participating elementary, junior high, and high school students can join the experiences with members closer to their age. Booths and programs are prepared to make the experience enjoyable and accessible even for those who are new to AI and VR.

EGG JAM is a challenge community centered around junior high and high school students, who use AI and technology to bring their "desires" to life. This festival also emphasizes creating a space that supports children's challenges and creativity.
