On October 19, 2025, Kuwait Times, one of the country’s leading English-language newspapers, published an article titled “World Robot Olympiad Program Empowers Youth.”
The report highlighted Kuwait’s growing enthusiasm for robotics and STEM education, with a special focus on the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) program and the initiatives led by Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) to support youth innovation.
During the official press conference covered by Kuwait Times, the ELECFREAKS Future Innovators Set was showcased among the educational robotics tools used to inspire students and support creative robotics learning — helping young participants bring their innovative ideas to life.
The WRO Program in Kuwait
The Kuwait Times report covered the official launch of WRO Kuwait, organized in collaboration with KPC. KPC’s Head of Relations, Shamael Al-Sharikh, described the event as “the intersection of ambition and science,” emphasizing the company’s commitment to supporting education, innovation, and youth empowerment.
According to the report, WRO Kuwait was established in 2024 and quickly gained momentum — growing from 27 teams in its first year to 83 teams and 240 participants in its second year. With strong backing from KPC, 80 educational programs have been distributed across schools to support training and competitions.
The WRO’s Future Innovators category — where creativity and problem-solving are prioritized over specific technologies — has become one of the most popular. It allows students aged 8 to 22 to use simple or affordable robotics kits to design solutions for real-world challenges.
This is where the ELECFREAKS Future Innovators Set shines — empowering students to turn ideas into action through accessible, hands-on robotics learning.
