Earlier this week, Ryan Seacrest sat down with Hadi on the TODAY Show to learn more … and even pick up some computer programming himself!
There’s an app for everything these days … and there will only be more and more over the coming years.
And Hadi Partovi wants to help teach young people how to write those codes for the apps of the future, with his non-profit Code.org.

“The jobs outnumber students 3-1 in computer programming, so if we got more students to study this and to major in it, we’d be able to add a half a trillion dollars to the U.S. economy, which is a big deal.”
Kudos to Ryan Seacrest for using his celebrity status---especially among teens---to show the importance of learning how to code. Hopefully this will inspire kids to pursue STEM education courses in school, online or in after-school programs.
