FIRST at The ASSEMBLY Show

First Robotics logo

The ASSEMBLY Show is proud to welcome FIRST® Illinois teams and celebrate our shared commitment to developing the next generation of engineers, innovators, and manufacturing leaders.

FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a global organization that inspires students to explore STEM through hands-on robotics programs that emphasize engineering, programming, teamwork, and real-world problem solving.

Through FIRST LEGO League (FLL), FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC), and FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC), students design, build, and program robots while also developing skills in collaboration, communication, and innovation—skills that directly translate to modern manufacturing and engineering environments.

FIRST teams represent the future of our industry. See them in action and experience the creativity, precision, and problem-solving driving tomorrow’s workforce. Visit Booth 605
