CJ OliveNetworks hosts AI tech challenge for healthy eating

CJ OliveNetworks, a subsidiary of the CJ Group, hosted the Girls Can Do IT 2026 event on Thursday. The event was an intense artificial intelligence hackathon where 30 middle school girls worked together under tight deadlines to develop real-world solutions for healthy eating using data analysis and generative AI. The program, organized in collaboration with the CJ Foundation, the corporate social responsibility arm of the group, brought together students from nine community youth centers in the Seoul area that are part of the CJ Donors Camp mentoring network.

CJ OliveNetworks has been running the CJ AX Creative Camp, an employee-driven AI and software education initiative, since 2015. This program aims to bridge the digital education gap. Girls Can Do IT, now in its sixth year, is run in conjunction with the CJ-UNESCO girls' education campaign and is designed to enhance students' understanding of AI and inspire them to explore digital career paths.

This year's edition introduced a new curriculum focused on nutrition and healthy eating, drawing themes from the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
