Saparguly Magtumov, an ambassador of the international Technovation Girls program from Turkmenistan, has won the prestigious GALA-2025 (Global Ambassador Leadership Award) - the Global Ambassador Leadership Award. He received this high award for successful promotion and implementation of the program in Turkmenistan and became the first young ambassador among GALA award winners.
The awards ceremony was held online and brought together young ambassadors from 117 countries participating in the Technovation Girls program. This season, four ambassadors won the award for excellence in leadership, community building and program advocacy - representatives from Turkmenistan, Spain, Nigeria and Kyrgyzstan.
According to Program Coordinator Megan Bleg at Technovation's headquarters in California, Saparguly worked not only in Turkmenistan, but also with an excellent team of ambassadors in the Central Asian region. In addition to carrying out program tasks in Ashgabat, he provided technical support to the team and successfully coordinated ambassadors throughout the country.
The international Technovation Girls program has been implemented in Turkmenistan for four years and is aimed at developing entrepreneurship and empowering girls in STEM fields - science, technology, engineering and mathematics. As part of a major technology competition, participants work in teams to create mobile applications to solve local and international life challenges.
At the end of each season, the finalist IT competition teams gather at the World Summit in California, where they present prototypes of their apps to leaders from top technology companies such as Google, Meta and Amazon.
