At the 2023 Manufacturing in America event, attendees had the opportunity to witness the impressive work of these teams firsthand and engage in conversations about their projects. It's clear that Electro-Matic and Siemens are committed to fostering the next generation of engineers and innovators, and it's inspiring to see the impact they're making in their communities. Every year Electro-Matic and Siemens proudly sponsor local First Robotics teams.

“It is our pleasure and privilege to be able to support the students at Osborn and the other local teams. Siemens and Electromatic are huge believers in FIRST Robotics, said Jim Sirois, Industrial Market Development, Automotive Manager at Siemens. The skills and experiences this program have to offer students can make all the difference in helping guide students career paths. Both of my kids were in FIRST in High School and it made a big difference for them and was a lot of fun at the same time. We look forward to many more years of partnership with the Osborn Knight Riders.

As we wish all the First Robotics teams the best of luck in their competitions, it's clear that the skills and experiences gained through this program can make a significant difference in shaping the career paths of these talented students. We look forward to seeing the continued impact the industry today and in the future.
