Empowering the Next Generation of Entrepreneurs
At 丫? [ Education ] we equip pre-teens and teenagers with future-ready skills through hands-on entrepreneurship experiences.
The power of 丫?

WHY? and WHAT?, WHEN? and WHERE?, WHO? and HOW?— they all fuel curiosity, driving young minds to question, explore, and innovate. Whether reaching space frontiers, diving into ocean depths, or pioneering breakthroughs, these questions shape the future of humanity.

Space is the limit?
Space Academy has secured partnerships with major US-based space camps. Starting in early 2026, students from the Latam and Asia-Pacific chapters will have the opportunity to join U.S. space programs.
Student-led social enterprise
A group of pre-teens from the Buenos Aires Chapter developed a Social Venture Enterprise: from ideation to marketing, to launch - earning a profit and donating a portion to a local charity.
Increased confidence
Participants consistently reported a boost in self-belief and ability to lead, evident in their presentations, project management, and collaborative efforts.
The Story of
丫
The original concept, titled IMPACTA [ Academy ], was developed by Sergio Argento in Palo Alto, California, in July 2020, during the peak of the COVID lockdowns and the global remote learning crisis.

Recognizing that traditional education was failing to equip students with the skills needed for a Rapidly Changing Future, Sergio was inspired by Elon’s Ad Astra School to develop a radical, reverse-engineering approach to learning — one that prioritizes real-world problem-solving, entrepreneurship, and critical thinking over theory-based education.
