Commander Andresito became epicenter of technology and education with the fourth round of the Misiones 2025 Robotics Cup, held at the Andresito Yerbatera Cooperative. The event brought together students, teachers, and families for a day filled with technical challenges and shared experiences.
The meeting, promoted by the Maker Spaces Network and accompanied by the Ministry of Industry, the Vice-governor of Misiones and the local Municipality, offered an environment where practical learning and innovation played a leading role, demonstrating a public-private articulation which is gaining strength in the region.
A meeting that mobilized the northern zone
The Andresito Yerba Mate Cooperative became an open meeting point where teams from the northern region could showcase their work and measure their progress. This format allowed educational projects and productive sector They will connect directly, bringing technology closer to real needs.
The audience felt a participatory and attentive atmosphere. Families, teachers, and community leaders participated in the tests, which, in addition to providing excitement, provided technical resolution situations, collaborative work and decision-making.
Skills and learning with real impact
Teams from different municipalities presented robots designed by themselves, facing routes and challenges that required precision, strategy and fine-tuned programmingBeyond the results, skills such as creativity, cooperation, and scientific vocation were also valued.
In parallel, a Artificial Intelligence Hackathon Aimed at proposing concrete solutions for yerba mate drying staff. The practical approach sought to improve processes and working conditions, strengthening the link between innovation and the needs of the local industry.
The Robotics Cup is consolidating itself as a space for inclusion and access to knowledge. Its itinerant nature facilitates the network of Maker Spaces articulate with municipalities and communities, bringing STEM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) closer to students from diverse backgrounds.
The tests, therefore, combined the competitive component with a clear pedagogical imprint: building significant learning from trial, error and continuous improvement, with active methodologies that motivate further research.
It was clear that the experience on the track is fed back into the solutions designed in the hackathon, promoting an ecosystem where the robotics and AI add up to solve specific problems.
With this dynamic, each date reinforces the role of Misiones as a reference in applied technological education, focusing on projects with impact on the community and in the productive fabric.
Authorities and supports that sustain the ecosystem
The day was attended by solange schelske (coordinator of the Maker Spaces Network and the Misiones Robotics Cup), Bruno Beck (mayor of Commander Andresito), Edgar gonzalez (mayor of Pozo Azul), Andrés Cooper (Undersecretariat of Industry), Juan Carlos Aman (president of the Andresito Yerba Mate Cooperative) and Karina Andruszczuk (local Maker Space representative), among other authorities.
The officials underlined the educational and social value of the initiative, highlighting that these spaces promote the Collaborative learning, awaken scientific vocations, and strengthen the Misiones innovation network. They also highlighted the importance of public-private collaboration as a driver of regional technological development.
On the way to the grand provincial final
The stop in Andresito had a strategic component: the northern towns added key points with a view to the provincial final. The grand final is scheduled for November 14 at JardÃn América, where the circuit's best teams will meet.

This fourth date left a trail of learning, projects and alliances. With the combination of technical competition, AI hackathon and institutional support, the Misiones Robotics Cup continues to bring innovation to classrooms and the productive sector, strengthening an ecosystem that is growing at a rapid pace.
