From Silicon Valley startup to industry leader
About us
In 1999, our family pioneered the very first tech camps for kids and teens. We’ve since grown from 280 to 50,000 students per year, spreading our Silicon Valley startup culture around the world and online. No other program has our track record of long-term student success, our passion, or our reputation as the world's go-to summer STEM educator. Our mission is to create life-changing tech experiences that embolden students to shape the future.
How iD started
Did you know that when we first founded iD Tech in 1999, we worked 7 days a week in a studio above a garage? We earned no salaries. We had no financing. Some said the need for ‘tech camps’ wouldn’t last—that we’d be obsolete in 5 years. But we believed in the idea of awesome technology education. And what started as 280 students per year has grown to 50,000 students per year around the world! Here we are 25 years later, growing, evolving, and delivering life-changing STEM experiences. We are proud to say that no other program has our track record of long-term student success. No other program has our passion, our demand, or our reputation as the world's largest and most trusted tech program in the world.

A purpose-driven company
Girls in STEM
Six years ago, only a small number of our campers were female. Today, we are proud to say that over 50,000 girls have graduated from our camps and academies, empowered with the skills and confidence they need to become leaders in STEM and beyond!
Millions of STEM jobs
There are currently millions of unfilled STEM jobs in the US, and the number will increase every year. Our long-term learning system equips kids and teens with skills for the most exciting, in-demand careers.
Student scholarships
This year, we will offer more scholarships than ever before to students from underserved communities. Every child deserves access to quality tech education, regardless of socioeconomic background. Our goal is to help bridge the digital divide.
