The vision of Armada Robotics is to...
Create a thriving community where every student is inspired and equipped to become a leader in innovation and technology. We envision a future where the Armada Area is recognized as a hub of excellence in Robotics and STEM education, producing globally competitive talent and fostering a culture of continuous learning and discovery. We have big long-term goals of providing an all-inclusive program to the masses. One of those goals is to create a state-of-the-art STEM facility where students, educators, and community members can collaborate to achieve our mission and fulfill our purpose.
Additionally, we are dedicated to significantly reducing or eliminating financial barriers to participation and engagement in robotics and STEM activities. We strive to provide long-term stability and sustainability for supported programs and expand resources, including people, funds, equipment, and facilities, to support and broaden the reach of robotics and STEM in our community.
