Re: Brazil's International Invitational
Yes this event was amazing!!! It's so much fun. If you can afford to go, go! A once in a liftetime experience for sure! Everyone down there is extremely friendly. And the language barrier wasn't too bad. We didn't have any trouble getting the robot down although it took about a month to get it back. But it was well worth it!

The food is great too!

The event organization is looking for funds to sponsor the robot transportation. Robot transportation costs between $2000 to $3000 depending on box weight.

Support for teams - robot transportation
Greetings!

I have good news!

You will receive full sponsorship for the robot transportation and customs support (a manual will be provided with all steps you have to follow to ensure a safe shippment and a safe return). This support is offered only to teams that confirm/commit participation in the event.

Please post your questions on this post or contact us, we'll do our best to have you with us in this great event, just like Adam Shapiro said "once in a lifetime experience and is definitely worth it"!

We have 14 teams confirmed and more than a hundred thousand visitors expected (last year we had 75,000), it will be a great chance to spread your FIRST spirit and have a great time.
