PFF Bootcamp 2019 was held on 23 and 24 August 2019 at Olive Tree Hotel Penang. The main objectives for the bootcamp are:

• To align scholars on PFF’s objectives and State’s vision, plans and programs
• To develop the scholars through soft skills training eg: leadership and communication skills
• To encourage camaraderie amongst scholars and strengthen the alumni bond

Various programmes had been arranged for the scholars during this 2 Days 1 Night bootcamp in order to achieve the objectives of the event. PFF Bootcamp 2019 started with concurrent site visits to Penang-based companies i.e. Intel and Vitrox, followed by an “Emotional Intelligence” training by Leaderonomics. Bootcamp participants were also divided into 12 teams to work on Bootcamp Challenge 2019 – “Realization of Penang2030”, a project designed for them to develop a captivating public awareness campaign to promote Penang2030 vision as a family-focused green and smart state that inspires the nation to their fellow university mates.  After the elimination round, the top 4 teams were selected to present their projects during PFF Luncheon 2019 on 24 August 2019.
