Smartforce Student Summit at IMTS

Students are diving into the future of manufacturing and engaging hands-on with cutting-edge technology while connecting with industry-leading vendors.

From robotics to 3D printing, these young innovators are shaping the next generation of manufacturing. Don't miss out on the excitement!

We are only a few weeks away from the 2024 IMTS Smartforce Student Summit and we could not be more excited! While getting ready for the show, we've been taking a walk down memory lane and looking at some amazing pics from the 2022 Smartforce Student Summit. Check out some of the students talking to NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration about the Artemis mission and Transfr working on some VR training.

Call us cheesy but we think this FIRST team and college students in Wisconsin is doing amazing work! The team is made up of engineering students from Marquette University’s Marquette University Opus College of Engineering adapting electronic toys to make them easier to use. This includes adding larger buttons, adding tethers or moving buttons to make them easier to use. Students like this is why the Smartforce Student Summit is so important!

Play Time Comes FIRST Play time is the best time! No matter their interests or abilities, every child should get the chance to play every day. Some FIRST Robotics teams are using their technical skills to make playtime more accessible for children with disabilities.
