A new and growing partnership!

A huge shout-out to Honeywell for their tremendous support of FIRST North Carolina! We were thrilled to bring eight area FIRST Robotics Competition teams to their headquarters in downtown Charlotte, an event that sparked some terrific local news coverage of both the teams and FIRST NC.

And the excitement didn’t stop there! In partnership with the Carolina Panthers, Honeywell launched a season-long celebration of community innovators—organizations using technology to create meaningful change. FIRST North Carolina was honored to be recognized during the November 9 Panthers home game!

FRC Team 3196 SPORK and FRC Team 6004 f(x) Robotics fired up the crowd with t-shirt-launching robots during pregame festivities, while FRC 3196 SPORK, FRC 4935 T-Rex, and FRC 10583 Stampede wowed fans with interactive robots at Legends Row.
