About Us


Welcome to the official website of FIRST Global Challenge Team Ukraine! We are a team of talented students who are excited to represent Ukraine in the FIRST Global Challenge 2024 in Athens. This prestigious international competition brings together teams from over 190 countries to design, build, and operate robots that compete in a series of challenges.

Despite not being the largest team, we have full confidence in our ability to perform well in the competition. As the sole representatives of our country, we are honored to showcase Ukraine's determination and talent. Our ultimate goal is to bring home a victory and demonstrate our country's immense potential in the field of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math).

At FIRST Global, our team will compete against other teams from around the world, using innovative thinking, problem-solving skills, and cutting-edge technology to overcome challenges and win the competition. The experience of designing and building a robot, working collaboratively as a team, and competing on an international stage will be a valuable and unforgettable experience for all of us.

Our participation in the FIRST Global Challenge also presents an exciting opportunity for investors and sponsors to invest in Ukraine's STEM education and support the next generation of STEM leaders. By supporting our team, you can help promote STEM education in Ukraine and inspire young people to pursue careers in these fields.

Thank you for your interest in FIRST Global Challenge Team Ukraine. We look forward to sharing our journey with you and representing our country to the best of our abilities!
