Legacy Guardians – Empower Teens with AI-Powered Wealth Adventures

Legacy Guardians – Empower Teens with AI-Powered Wealth Adventures

Challenge Overview

Presented by 3D Wealth Platform & NUVC.ai

Background:

Financial literacy is a cornerstone of future independence, yet traditional methods rarely engage younger generations. Teens today grow up surrounded by digital experiences, but lack engaging tools to understand investing, risk, and wealth-building.


Problem:
Existing investment education tools are either too technical, too adult-oriented, or detached from real-world dynamics. This gap leaves teens without accessible, safe, and motivating ways to learn critical wealth management skills.


Task for Participants:
Your task is to design and prototype an AI-powered, gamified investment learning platform for teens aged 12–18. Using simulated or real-time market data, teams should create an immersive experience where players act as “Legacy Guardians,” managing a heritage portfolio while navigating dynamic market events.
