2024 will see InfinityX STEM Foundation and the Government of Goa staging India’s first ever and biggest Robotics Festival, ‘The Goa International Robotics Festival 2024.’ The Festival will be held from January 25th, 2024, till January 28th, 2024 in Goa and will host teams from all over India as well as International Teams.
Last year along with 71 Indian teams, 10 international teams participated in the India Championship. We have teams that are specially-abled, underprivileged, from rural backgrounds and remote regions like Ladakh and North-east, as well as teams from minority communities that are part of the Festival.
As part of this year’s initiative, The InfinityX STEM Foundation has extended support to this noble cause for the Special Schools team with:
# Free Registration of 4 Teams.
# Robotic Kit for the 4 Teams.
# Training and mentoring of all 4 Teams.
On 14th December 2023, InfinityX STEM foundation organised an event to hand over 4 Robotics Kits to 4 Teams of Special Students from Sanjay Centre for Special Education, Goa. The event was graced by Rohan Khaunte , Minister for IT, Tourism and Printing and Guru Pawaskar, State Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities. The kits were handed over by Khaunte.
