Invitation to Youth Summit 2025: A Message to Our Youth “The Future You Could Build”
April 2025 William Jackson, CEO of MetaverseWP and My Quest To Teach, will take the international stage with educators, business owners, entrepreneurs and technologists. GatherVerse, a global platform for digital innovation, creativity, imagination and humanity to inspire youth about their futures in new digital ecosystems. Jackson is a sponsor, and supporter of technology conferences across Taiwan, Latin America, Africa and the United States.
Jackson is on the Board of Tristan’s Acceleration Academy where he is also the Technology Opportunity Specialist teaching youth about building on the Metaverse, using AI and Creating Podcasts to share youth and teen voices in ecosystems of Digital Immersion.
Speaking as part of a distinguished panel, Jackson will emphasize the role of young minds as creators, designers, and innovators, urging them to harness emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Virtual Reality (VR) to shape a better world for their futures. Inspiring youth and teens to be their authentic selves and apply their imagination to everything they do digitally and academically.
A passionate advocate for Digital Literacy and STEAM Education, Jackson’s mission is to prepare for the next generation with the skills and mindset to lead in an increasingly tech-driven society. To help youth and teens that are disabled and handicapped to be included in creative aspects of tech and innovation.
“The future isn’t just something you step into, it’s something you create,” says Jackson as the World Metaverse Council’s Metaverse Education Program Director.
Jackson emphasizes “Youth have the power to build solutions, tell their own stories, and design the digital worlds they want to see.” At GatherVerse, he will share insights on how students, educators, and young entrepreneurs can apply creativity, critical thinking, and innovation to leverage AI, VR, and Metaverse for social good, education, and economic empowerment.
The discussion will include business owners, educators, and entrepreneurs to explore practical ways youth can transition from consumers of technology to active contributors and leaders in the digital economy. This panel is an essential conversation for students, parents, educators, and industry leaders looking to equip youth with the tools to succeed in an evolving global landscape.
