Minds Inspired FIRST Tech Challenge

This weekend, all are invited to witness a competition with a few key ingredients: 10 robots, approximately 80 students from five Cayman Islands high schools and a team of volunteer mentors to officiate the event.  

The 2022 challenge will see public and private school teams form alliances in this year’s transportation-themed event, Freight Frenzy.

The team of volunteer engineers and STEM professionals officiating the event includes Namitha Abraham, an electrical engineer and robotics mentor in the programme, who touts the value of students learning robotics for the transferrable skills it provides

Sponsored by Dart’s Minds Inspired programme, Aureum Re, Caribbean Utility Company, Digicel and Health City Cayman Islands, the event will also lead to the selection of the Cayman National Robotics Team to attend the FIRST Global Challenge in Geneva, Switzerland in October 2022!

Whether you are cheering on a student or have no idea about robotics and want to come to learn more, this is a family-friendly event for all!
