Ciara Judge

Ciara Judge is an Irish science communicator, scientist and entrepreneur. As a young teenager she was part of a team that won the BT Young Scientist, the EU Young Scientist and the Google Science Fair for her scientific research, and in 2014 TIME Magazine named her as being one of the 25 most influential teens worldwide. Ciara is a strong believer in the ethos that young people are just as able, if not more able to change the world as adults are, and spreads this message by speaking at events and conferences worldwide, and through various television appearances - for instance on Henry Ford's Innovation Nation. Some notable people in her audiences have included President Jimmy Carter, Bono, President Micheal D Higgins, and Bill McDermott, CEO of SAP Worldwide. She has addressed such events as WEDay in the Wembley Arena, London, the We Are Family Foundation Gala at the Hammerstein Ballroom, NYC, and TEDxTeen at the O2 Arena, London. As a result of her background in science and entrepreneurship, Ciara is no stranger to the stage. She also has experience in the performing arts, having played violin, piano and guitar since a young age. Furthermore, she has a background in gymnastics, having competed for her college in trampolining from 2016-2020.
