This requires the use of modern technology and this technology needs to be invented, understood, used and further developed - by today's skilled workers and tomorrow's skilled workers. zdi.NRW brings both of them together in courses and at events and creates awareness through campaigns.

"Power Up - Don't Be a Fossil!" is the motto of this year's robot competition. The competition has been an integral part of zdi.NRW since 2006.
