The first ever UK Robotics Week starts this June! A series of public events will be hosted across the UK to engage people of all ages and also to showcase the current state-of-the-art of UK robotics.

In the run up to the week, there will be events such as the Imperial Festival and participants of the Robotics Week Challenges will already be working hard in preparation to impress the judges!
