First Robotics

2010 - Present 
Our partnership with FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) began in 2010 as we assisted them with a big vision: shaping the youth into tomorrow's innovators. With over 18,000 bright minds, aged 6-18, from 40 countries, these young innovators conceive, craft, and code their own robots, competing in a riveting showcase of talent.

When FIRST envisioned a transformative overhaul for their annual championship, they instinctively turned to Solomon Group's team of creators, technologists, and logistics experts. Recognizing in us more than just a production partner, FIRST valued our unique blend of expansive creativity, large-scale event mastery, and a genuine resonance with their mission.

Since the event's revamp in 2018, the FIRST Championship has ascended new heights. It’s become a spectacle, offering enhanced entertainment for spectators, electrifying energy for competitors, dynamic engagement for online viewers, leading to amplified value for sponsors. 2023 marked a significant milestone as FIRST ventured into the homes of viewers, streaming its championship live. Make sure to tune in on Twitch each April to witness the masterful engineering of tomorrow's top innovators in action.
