LAB61’S ROBOTICS ACADEMY A SMALL STEP FOR FUTURE IMPACT

Written By NexxisOct 9, 2020 · 3 min read
Community Engagement - Lab61

Lab61 launched their Inaugural Robotics Academy, proudly sponsored by Applus and
Nexxis, this week at their training facility in Yangebup.

The STEAM program ensured its participants, ranging from years five to 10,
looking to pursue a STEAM-focused career have an advantage over other students
by allowing them exclusive access to some of the world’s latest robotic
inspection technologies, made available by the major sponsor and parent company
Nexxis.

The robotic enthusiasts that were selected for the program were taught the
fundamentals of coding, building, and operating their very own robot. They also
heard from key influential stakeholders across multiple industries, including a
special visit by 30 girls that are completing SEA (Subsea Engineering
Associates) and WISE (Women in Subsea Engineering) Future Engineers’ program.



 

Lab61’s CEO Lina Velosa says the program’s aim is to get young children excited
and interested in Robotics and Technology, as a growing field now and in the
future.

“We especially want to make this available to underrepresented minorities such
as females and indigenous people,”  Ms. Velosa said.

 



“This program is a small step in making a massive impact on our industry in the
future and filling the skills gaps that we are seeing today and, in the future.

“These programs help introduce STEAM activities to all kids at various ages but
especially those who may not have the opportunities others have.

“At Lab61, we aim to engage kids at an early age and develop alongside them as
they continue on their journey towards a job within the technical industry.

“So, when they choose their career, we have planted the seed for them to be
ready and well equipped to make a positive impact because of Lab61’s influence.”

 



To be selected, all participants had to submit a written application and Lab61
were overwhelmed by the number of submissions.

Kids from across the Perth metropolitan area were selected to take part in the
School Holidays Robotics Academy, that concluded on Thursday 8 October.

The program was a fun and engaging way of introducing STEAM activities to the
participants, to follow all the action that took place at the Robotics Academy,
follow Lab61’s social media channels.

Lab61 Background
Lab 61, a Nexxis Company, is Female-led and aims to deliver Robotic programs to
underrepresented groups within STEAM education, including females and indigenous
communities. By utilising their partnership with Nexxis, Lab61 will provide an
environment to make future engineers industry-ready.
