PlanetBravo has been celebrating children’s talents in STEM since 2003, growing from a small camp in Beverly Hills into what is described as Los Angeles’s largest and most popular summer STEM program for kids. Its mission states that it uses technology as a tool, not the focus, to help children express themselves, build confidence, and discover their unique talents, with an emphasis on both physical and mental fitness and on project-based challenges that exercise critical thinking skills. The camp is described as an award-winning summer camp, “the original creator camp,” “LA’s #1 STEM Camp and Curriculum Provider,” “LA’s #1 STEM program since 2003,” and was voted #1 STEM Camp on ActivityHero.com.

The program notes a 10:1 student-teacher ratio, small classes where every student gets attention, and a healthy balance of time indoors on computers and outdoors playing games. Each camper is assigned a personal computer for the entire week, with a 1:1 device-to-student ratio. PlanetBravo also runs a Junior STEM camp for its youngest campers with its own project-based experience, dedicated curriculum, and team of teachers. Beyond summer, PlanetBravo provides in-school computer instruction, one-to-one teacher training for technology integration, daytime classes in several Los Angeles–area school districts, and special programs such as GATE and a girls club called “Code Like a Girl.”

Parent testimonials describe children who are eager to return, enjoying activities like learning code and Photoshop, playing Minecraft and Dodgeball, and talking about camp after it ends. Parents frequently mention counselors and instructors as fun, positive, encouraging, organized, and professional, and several note that their children attended without knowing anyone and still had a strong experience. One parent specifically mentions appreciating measures such as signing children in and out and chaperoning them to the restroom. Multiple parents refer to PlanetBravo as “the best camp ever” or “amazing,” and several state that their children want to come back for more weeks or the following summer.

PlanetBravo’s work has also appeared in media and community projects. It consulted for the Randi Zuckerberg animated series “Dot,” was featured in an episode of “Chelsea Does” on Netflix where Chelsea learns to code an app with them, and had its “Code Like a Girl” program featured on PBS NewsHour in 2015. In 2016, PlanetBravo consulted on a parent safety segment for Good Morning America and was later mentioned by actress Molly Shannon, and Fortune Magazine highlighted PlanetBravo in a piece titled “How to Revitalize Schools with Tech” as an example of implementing technology into traditional schools.
