Nurturing young inventors with Kick Andy.

Project KickAndy

A chance for young inventors

The first Bosch episode on the Kick Andy show aired in August 2016 and was followed by a second competition in October 2017. The project awarded creative and innovative thinking amongst young inventors by giving them an insight into the workings of a technology company.

Innovation, dedication and a creative mindset help boost Indonesia's development. New technologies contribute to higher economic growth and better welfare across the country. Bosch actively encourages and seeks to inspire young Indonesians to be ingenious and develop something for the greater good of society.

Join the young inventors on their trip to Germany.

True to our founder Robert Bosch's beliefs we are dedicated to enabling young inventors to help make a difference in daily life.
