The Conference Center of Politehnica University Timisoara hosted the first edition of the Informal Education Gala on Space Sciences and Technologies on February 14th, an event that confirms the technological potential of the city, as well as the interest shown in the field of space technologies by students, pupils, teaching staff, IT companies.

The idea behind the organization of the event is related to the interest shown by the high school students for this top field and especially the four student teams from Timişoara who represented Romania at the Zero Robotics competition, held earlier this year in the USA. At least equally important, medium to long-term investments are being launched here in the R & D area that will consequently develop business in the field, consolidating a space sector with great potential for growth.

The event aimed at structuring a complex local ecosystem in the area of ​​space sciences and technologies in Timisoara or even establishing a partnership between the initiators of the event (IT Banat Association, Lasting Software, Nokia, Politehnica University Timisoara, through the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications Engineering and Information Technologies) .

The organizers of the event wished to provide guarantees to young people with the preoccupation that they can study these top technologies and that they can pursue a career in the field here in Timisoara.

During the gala the framework created by the Romanian Space Agency (ROSA) in conjunction with the European Space Agency (ESA) was presented, which provides good premises for the development of activities and projects, both in the educational and business areas.

The highlight of the event was the award ceremony of those children, youngsters and teachers who are aware of the potential of space science and technology, capitalizing on existing opportunities, developing spectacular participations in national and global competitions (CanSat , Exo- RO, Zero Robotics , NASA Space Apps Challenge , Climate Detectives ), massively supported by individual donors and local businesses.

Finally, the announcement of ESERO Romania designation of Timisoara as the host of the national competition for satellite simulations CanSat was made.
