In April 2022, TELUS Spark merged with Beakerhead and joined forces to engage and inspire more people and communities with science, engineering, art, and technology (STEAM). With Beakerhead and Spark working together, the future of science in communities across Calgary looks brighter than ever before!
Beakerhead has brought STEAM to life for 542,000 people through art and entertainment. This magic has been made possible with 665 local partners, 35,000 volunteer hours, and 1,442 collaborating presenters, and reached over 605 million people online. That’s a lot of numbers. But they all add up to awesome.
