More than robots
More than robots
FIRST Robotics means more than robots. FRC is about learning, growing, and innovating. To be able to build robots, our dedicated business team organizes fundraising, budgeting, project management, and entrepreneurship. To engage with the community, our operations team manages social media, plans events, and organizes outreach. Videographers, photographers, and artists produce amazing content for the world.
