Basseterre, St Kitts and Nevis: St Kitts and Nevis Robotics Association, on March 29, 2023, informed about the ‘2023 FIRST Global Challenge Announcement Video’. While announcing the Event 2023 and informing the general public, it mentioned, “We’re excited to announce the 2023 FIRST Global Challenge in Singapore from 7-10 October, supported by title sponsor Lam Research!”

Additionally, it mentioned that it is known as the “city in a garden,” Singapore is at the forefront of sustainability initiatives, making them a great choice for this year’s theme – renewable energy.

St Kitts and Nevis Robotics Association has further informed about Singapore. It outlined that Singapore is a small nation-state known for its diverse mix of cultures, and food scene and is among the most densely populated places in the world, but did you know it’s also on the front when it comes to technology? Singapore was ranked the 6th most innovative city in the world. With a focus on investing in science, technology, and sustainability, you can find the innovation-forward Gardens by the Bay with a solar-powered conservatory, Singapore’s extremely efficient transit system, and even the world’s first commercial vertical farm.
