Minister Smith Lauds Trinity East Teen’s Tech Solution For Market Vendors

Senator the Honourable Dominic Smith, Minister of Public Administration and Artificial Intelligence, has reaffirmed the Government’s commitment to nurturing Trinidad and Tobago’s next generation of technology talent, following a meeting with Trinity East student Malachi Senhouse, creator of the award-winning VendaTT application.

Senhouse, a Form Five student, developed VendaTT to help local market vendors promote and sell their produce, demonstrating how young people can use technology to address practical challenges within their communities. His innovation earned him top recognition in an app-building competition hosted by the Caribbean Industrial Research Institute (CARIRI).

Minister Smith welcomed Senhouse to the Ministry on Thursday, praising the young innovator for applying his technical skills to a real-world challenge and encouraging him to continue developing his capabilities in technology and innovation.
