The Japan Cup aims to provide opportunities of international exchange to VEX IQ teams from alll over the world as well as inspire young people to pursue further education and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering and math while building self-confidence, knowledge and life skills and developing collaboration among students and instructors.

Since this event is dated after March 12th in 2023, there will be no allocation for the World Championships. However teams will challenge to acquire a title of the 2022-2023 Champion on Teamwork Challenge in Japan and also encourage their skill level on Driving and Programming Skill Challenge.

You can watch, touch and experience the Kawasaki’s state-of-the-art robotics technologies and knowledges.
Setting a main concept “human-robot coexistence and collaboration,” the facility continues to display the latest robots.
