It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 6th Pancyprian Robotex Robotics Competition, an initiative of the Cyprus Informatics Association organized in collaboration with government and private institutions and hosted this year here at the premises of the University of Cyprus Sports Centre. A competition based on the models of the Robotex World Competition.
As the Deputy Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digital Policy, we are proud to support this competition again this year. We firmly believe that such events can make a positive contribution to the formation of a culture in robotics technology and enhance the participation of both children and adults in these efforts.
In a world that is constantly evolving and changing technologically at a rapid pace, the knowledge and use of robotics technology in education must be enriched and developed. This competition promotes the upgrading of the STEAM disciplines, making both our young children and teachers part of this evolution.
It is therefore worthy of congratulations to all the organisers and all those who support this competition. I would like to assure you that the Government, the Ministry of State and I personally will always be supporters and active supporters of such excellent initiatives.
My dear roboticists,
I know you are looking forward to the start of the competition But before I close, I would like you to remember that you are the best ambassadors for Cyprus, as many of you will represent us in the World Competition that will follow this winter. Through your participation in this competition, you are filling your minds with experiences and knowledge important for your professional careers, because we need young scientists with developed digital skills.
I would like to congratulate each of you individually for your great effort and participation in today's competition. Let's see together how the robots will cope with the challenges you have set them.
I declare the competition open.
Good luck to all of you.
