Winner of the
METI 2018 Monodzukuri Nippon Special Prize!
For Driving Robotics Education
Artec is proud to take home a Special Award in the Cultivating Human Resources Division of the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry’s Seventh Monodzukuri Nippon Grand Awards for our promotion of youth-oriented robot programming education using block-based robot kits.
METI Award Criteria
Artec developed heretofore unseen block-based robot programming kits that lower the hurdles towards robotics education for young people, allowing children even in the early years of elementary school to express themselves and build freely in short periods of time.
With its development of skill-based curricula, opening of programming schools, and more, Artec is taking a comprehensive approach to make its contribution in shaping the workforce who will usher in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
