Finland – Innokas Network: Interested in Coding and Robotics? Event roadshow for teachers and teacher students during the EU Code Week and Robotics Week in Fall 2014. You will learn in fun and engaging ways about coding and robotics during workshops run by teachers and students from Innokas Network schools.

Italy – The 2nd edition of the AI and Cognition workshop 2014 (AIC 2014) will bring together researchers coming from different domains (e.g., artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computer science, engineering, philosophy, social sciences, etc.) to work on the interdisciplinary field of cognitively inspired artificial systems.

Spain Over 100 robotics related events will take place all over Spain, from Madrid to Barcelona, from San Sebastian to La Coruna. Events target: pupils of all ages, as young as 3 years old, parents and teachers. Workshops will be built around various topics such as building robots, 3D printing, programming or flying drones.
