And certainly not for us! That is why we chose to become part of the\r\n        materialization of this chance by directly sponsoring the participants in the robotics championship.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n    <h2 class=\"header-with-badget\">\r\n        Who is the &#8220;TehnoZ Lightning Bolts&#8221; and how has the team qualified for the World Championship?\r\n    <\/h2>\r\n    <p>&#8220;TehnoZ Lightning Bolts&#8221; is a team coordinated by computer science teacher Ghiordunescu Gratiela and consists of\r\n        10 students passionate about robotics. The team includes: Arcan Sara, Coltan Rares, Dumitru Matei, Grecu Stefan,\r\n        Lazar Ruxandra, Lucan Ioana, Manda Evelina, Matei Toma, Popa Vlad and Rizea Maria.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/lb.tehnoz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;TehnoZ Lightning Bolts&#8221;<\/a> stood out at the national\r\n        robotics competition FIRST LEGO League Challenge 2022 Romania, where they won the second prize and the title of\r\n        VICE-CHAMPIONS of Romania. A title strong enough to qualify them for the most important stage: the World\r\n        Robotics Championship in Brazil.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>Being invited to the demo event organized by the students themselves on June 20, I asked them what it was like to\r\n        participate in the national competition and what helped them to qualify.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>&#8220;It was a combination of criteria. Not only the programming part was evaluated. The jury took into account both\r\n        the research\/documentation part, the team values \u200b\u200bpart (values \u200b\u200bthat they presented and argued in the\r\n        competition), and, of course, the robotics part. Now, they are working on optimizing the project &#8220;, explained\r\n        the coordinating professor.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>&#8220;And in Brazil we will participate with another robot, not the one we were in at the national competition. And\r\n        now we are working hard to optimize it to get the best result &#8220;, one of the team members said.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>Beyond the result obtained, equally fascinating is the enthusiasm of the children who amazed us with their\r\n        involvement and the way they managed to document and organize themselves both in competition and outside it.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>As true professionals, they have divided their team into roles, thus covering all the needs that may arise in the\r\n        project &#8211; from programming and mechanics to marketing and administration.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>The focus of the project was not established by chance. However, they have reached a key point in the global\r\n        agenda-setting: green transport (the idea of \u200b\u200boptimizing the transport of goods with benefits in terms of\r\n        driver safety and comfort, environmental impact, and keeping goods transported in the best possible form).\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>The jury was also impressed by the fact that the team proved to be documented beyond the technical part. The\r\n        &#8220;TehnoZ Lightning Bolts&#8217; &#8216; explained and argued in competition how such a project can be applied in reality,\r\n        including from a financial perspective, by accessing European funds.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n\n\t\t\t<div id='6690-1' class='gallery gallery-6690 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail' itemscope

robotics group from the Zinca Golescu National College look like?\r\n    <\/h2>\r\n    <p>This is a curiosity that the members of the robotics group greeted with a demo event to which we were invited.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>&#8220;This event was made 100% of their initiative. They organized everything. We &#8211; the adults &#8211; were more of a\r\n        support,&#8221; explained the coordinating professor.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>Once I opened the hall door where they held this event, I felt that I was escaping from the present\u2026 directly\r\n        into the future. They built a world of all possibilities created by a perfect mix of creativity and technology.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>And, because we didn&#8217;t leave this meeting empty-handed, here is a video in which we tried to capture something of\r\n        the atmosphere created by them at the demo event.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nTDU2HNsAdk\" title=\"#ForTheLoveOfProgramming | Roweb sponsorizeaza participarea echipei \u201eTehnoZ Lightning Bolts\u201d\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\r\n    <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n    <h2 class=\"header-with-badget\">\r\n        Why For the Love of Programming and what attracts us to be part of the story of such projects?\r\n\r\n    <\/h2>\r\n    <p>If you&#8217;ve been following us on the blog or social media so far, you&#8217;re already familiar with <a href=\"\/blog\/interview-viorel-costea-ceo-roweb\/\">the Roweb story<\/a>.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>If, on the other hand, you recently came to <a href=\"\/\">our page<\/a>, you are probably wondering why\r\n        #ForTheLoveOfProgramming.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>The Roweb story began during computer classes when a teacher (today, the company&#8217;s CEO &#8211; Viorel Costea) managed\r\n        to instill a passion for programming in his students. Later, 3 of them (Gabriel Rosu, Razvan Veliscu, and Mirel\r\n        Ionescu) became his partners in a business that was shaping up in a context in which digital was just a little\r\n        more than a rumor.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>\u201cAs a teacher, I\u2019ve met students with great potential. It\u2019s one of the privileges of teaching: to see not only\r\n        what a student is, but also what he\/she can become someday. Their enthusiasm and capabilities were definitely an\r\n        inspiration for me. On the other hand, I\u2019ve noticed a real potential for creating an IT company on the market.\r\n        So, putting these two together, I\u2019ve realized soon that it would be a real lost opportunity not to involve some\r\n        of my (former) students in a bold project.\u201d\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <div style=\"display: flex; align-items: center; gap: 2rem\">\r\n        <div>\r\n            <figure class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roweb.ro\/ro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Bitmap657.png\" alt=\"interviu Viorel Costea Roweb\" class=\"wp-image-3292 simple-no-border img-center\">\r\n            <\/figure>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <div>\r\n            <p><b>Viorel Costea <\/b> <br>Co-fondator &amp; CEO Roweb<\/p>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <p>Roweb has grown rapidly from year to year, bringing more and more diversity to the company&#8217;s culture.
