Jigsaw at the Stripe Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition 2026

Jigsaw will be attending the Stripe Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition at the RDS starting tomorrow. This four‑day event brings together some of Ireland’s brightest young minds, and we’re proud to support conversations around youth mental health.

Our team will be on-site throughout the exhibition to meet students, teachers, and visitors. We’ll share information about Jigsaw’s services and resources, and, more importantly, listen to young people as they discuss mental health. We want every young person to know that support is available and accessible.

Organisers report that nearly27 percentof the almost 2,000 projects submitted address mental health, stress, anxiety, depression, sleep, or wellbeing. This significant proportion indicates that students are deeply engaged with these issues and are eager to explore solutions through science and technology.

Mike Mansfield, Director of Communications and Fundraising at Jigsaw, commented:
“The fact that so many projects are centred on health and wellbeing shows that young people are not only thinking about their own mental health but also about how to improve it for others. This aligns perfectly with Jigsaw’s mission to support youth mental health across Ireland. We’re glad to be part of an event that brings together curiosity, creativity, and a genuine care for the future. We would also like to thank Smurfit Westrock for their generous support in helping Jigsaw attend this year’s exhibition.”

If you’re attending the exhibition, please come and say hello. We’d be pleased to talk about mental health, answer your questions, and share how Jigsaw can support you or someone you know. Together, we can help make mental health a priority for every young person in Ireland.
