URG sponsors 2024 National STEM Festival & National STEM Challenge
Led by EXPLR, and in partnership with the U.S. Department of Education, the National STEM Festival is set to take place April 12-13, 2024, in Washington D.C.
Tech For Good x United Robotics Group
Molding future tech professionals
URG reinforces its commitment to STEM
The National STEM Challenge asks students to develop projects that make a tangible real-world impact and create positive change for people and the planet. Students have the opportunity to submit their entries in six categories: Environmental Stewardship, Future Food, Health and Medicine, Powering the Planet, Space Innovation and Tech for Good.
Through this sponsorship, URG takes a central role in the Tech for Good category. This category uses AI, data visualization, robotics and other technologies to create solutions for real-world problems. Projects could tackle issues such as bridging the digital gap, ensuring fair access and reducing racial biases in technology.
URG's participation extends beyond providing financial sponsorship; the company serves as a member of the national selection committee for the Challenge. This involvement helps identify outstanding students who will showcase their inventions and innovations at the Festival in Washington, D.C.
"This initiative aligns perfectly with our mission to empower humanity with technology. As we work to bring our robotics and AI solutions into the classroom as collaborative learning tools, our leadership in the Tech for Good category will keep the topics top of mind for educators, industry and young people central to our work.
Jason Panella, vice president of business development, education
