A window on the world in an event truly for EVERYONE. A fundamental moment to discover what a real robotics competition and above all to better understand the scope of this youth movement. All this is MEET&STEAM. The event, sponsored by the Department of Education of the Lombardy Region and the Municipality of Brescia, is organized by the association DreamPuzzle APS ETS, born in Brescia in 2013 to introduce young people to digital skills through educational robotics, coding and STEAM activities, and hosts one of the two international stages of the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) robotics competition

World Robot Olympiad was created to bring together young people aged 6 to 19 with the same passion, stimulating the study of STEAM disciplines in cooperative activities and by proposing challenges appropriate to different age groups in which they can compare their programming, construction, strategy and creativity skills.

In fact, in robotic competitions the real challenge is with oneself, more than with other teams. In WRO Open Championship the competitive spirit is present but accompanied by the desire to learn and share. The competition acts as a glue to encourage cultural exchanges and friendships beyond national borders to form an international community.

The competition is divided into 4 categories: RoboSport, RoboMission, Future Innovators and Future Engineers, which are distinguished internally by age groups, tools used and "missions" of increasing difficulty based on the age of the children. The participating teams are composed of two or three elements plus the coach, always divided by age groups, to ensure that the competition is between equals, therefore fair.

This year RoboMission opens up to two new age groups: Kids, Starter dedicated to the very young and to those approaching for the first time with missions and an easier competition field.
