This year, Team Tunisia took the amazing step of writing, scoring, and producing the first-ever FIRST Global music video! “Ta Léme in Greece,” which translates to “See you in Greece” is an homage to #FGC2024Athens and the incredible global community it brings together. The song celebrates the spirit of unity, innovation, and excitement as teams from around the world gather in Athens to collaborate and compete. Taken all together, this song is a tribute to the shared dreams and friendships that FIRST Global inspires. Thank you for your amazing creativity Team Tunisia!

Empowering the youth of today to be the STEM leaders of tomorrow.
About us
FIRST Global organizes a yearly international robotics challenge to ignite a passion for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) among the more than two billion youths across the world. The non-profit provides the framework for an “olympics”-style robotics challenge where one team from every nation is invited to participate in a global robotics event that builds bridges between high school students with different backgrounds, languages, religions, and customs. By bringing these future STEM leaders together in an engaging and collaborative competition that drives home the importance, excitement, and applicability of STEM education, FIRST Global inspires students to learn the skills they will need to make the discoveries their parents and grandparents would consider miracles, impossibilities, or just plain science fiction.
