COMPETITIONS: Show off your calculation skills in our math competition and Rubik’s Cube challenge! Winners will receive prizes and certificates in our award ceremony with their names on them.
STANDS/ACTIVITIES: Stands will be offered showcasing cool and intriguing STEM activities and demonstrations.
SPECIAL REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED FOR WORKSHOPS & COMPETITIONS: THE REGISTRATION LINK WILL BE SENT TO YOUR EMAIL AFTER YOU REGISTER FOR GENERAL ADMISSION HERE.

After completing these workshops, participants will gain valuable knowledge and insight into the topics and, in some cases, even take home a completed small-scale project! Moreover, all event participants will receive electronic certificates. All competition attendees, regardless of the results, will receive electronic certificates of participation.
~ EXTRA FUN ~
At the event, there will be a lucky draw with several prizes, totalling a value of over $1000. One entry is offered to each attendee by default, and additional entries may be earned for each workshop or activity you participate in!
