The event serves students attending historically under-resourced schools, particularly students of color, in grades 6th-8th. The key purpose of the Forum is to empower, encourage, and expose students to the breadth of opportunities available to them through education, with a special focus on STEM and the variety of careers facilitated through STEM education.\nWith this year’s focus on young women, the forum will be virtual, with 200+ anticipated students tuning in from different schools around the Bay Area. In a field that is predominantly men, the guest speakers will be sharing their stories not only about overcoming fear in the face of adversity but also encouraging this young women to normalize the need to make science, technology, engineering and math fun and appealing to young students. \nFor sponsorship questions, please contact our VP, Events at sjohnson@svlg.org ( mailto:sjohnson@svlg.org ).\nSPONSORS\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n .popup-contact .smls-overlay-contact-info {\n display: none;\n }\n .popup-contact .smls-overlay-contact-info.active {\n display: block;\n position: fixed;\n width: 30%;\n height: 37%;\n background: #000000a6;\n color: #fff;\n left: 30%;\n right: 0;\n top: 30%;\n z-index: 999;\n text-align: center;\n }\n .popup-contact .smls-overlay-contact-info.active .smls-popup-open {\n display: none;\n }\n .popup-contact .smls-overlay-contact-info.active .popup-content {\n visibility: visible;\n }\n .popup-content h4, .popup-content h5 {\n color: #FFF;\n }\n\n\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448.smls-main-logo-wrapper {\n width: 100%;\n margin:0 auto;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-1 .smls-grid-each-item:before,\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-1 .smls-grid-image-wrap:before,\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-2 .smls-grid-each-item:before,\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-2 .smls-grid-image-wrap:before {\n border-left: 1px solid #e9e9e9;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-1 .smls-grid-each-item:after,\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-1 .smls-grid-image-wrap:after,\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-2 .smls-grid-each-item:after,\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-2 .smls-grid-image-wrap:after {\n border-bottom: 1px solid #e9e9e9;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-grid-container-template-2 {\n border: 1px solid #e9e9e9;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-pager-template-2.owl-theme .owl-dots .owl-dot span:before\n {\n background-color: #0d98dc;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-pager-template-2.owl-theme .owl-dots .owl-dot span {\n background: #7c7c7c;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-1.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-]:hover {\n background-color: rgba(71, 71, 71, 0.7);\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-1.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-] {\n background-color: #474747;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-2.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-] {\n background-color: #474747;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-2.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-]:hover {\n background-color: rgba(71, 71, 71, 0.7);\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-3.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-] {\n border: 2px solid #474747;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-3.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-]:before {\n background-color: rgba(71, 71, 71, 0.7);\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-3.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-]:hover {\n border-color: rgba(71, 71, 71, 0.7);\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-4.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-] {\n border: 2px solid #474747;\n color: #474747;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-4.owl-carousel .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-]:hover {\n background-color: rgba(71, 71, 71, 0.7);\n color: #333333;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-arrow-type-5.owl-theme .owl-controls .owl-nav [class*=owl-] {\n background-color: #474747;\n }\n .smls-main-logo-outer-302458448 .smls-carousel-template-2.owl-carousel .smls-carousel-four-items {\n border: 1px solid #eee;\n }\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n URL:https://svlg.rudtek.dev/events/young-leaders-forum/ CATEGORIES:Education & Workforce,Special Events LOCATION:Virtual Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://svlg.rudtek.dev/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/SFTS-2.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
