The competition has grown into one of the Kingdom’s most prominent robotics events, attracting nearly 800 students across more than 230 teams representing universities, schools, and academic centers. Participants unleashed their digital creativity and showcased their skills in designing and programming unique robots. The competition took place from September 25 to 27 at the Al Hussein Business Park Theater.
This sponsorship reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to advancing digital education as a key pillar of its corporate social responsibility strategy. By supporting the Sumo Robotics competitions, it helps equip youth with future-ready skills in innovation, strategic thinking, and autonomous robot design and programming, empowering them to excel in both national and international arenas.
The contest is inspired by the principles of Japan’s famous sumo wrestling but applied to robotics. Each team designs and programs a unique robot from scratch, following precise standards that cover mechanical design and strategic thinking. The robots and their approaches are then presented to the jury members that brings together academic experts as well as representatives from the business and industrial sectors, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of the teams’ skills.
Orange Jordan praised the participating students for exemplifying digital empowerment, highlighting that the training they received at the Digital Fabrication Lab of the Orange Digital Center reflects the company’s commitment to delivering innovative educational programs.
