Innokas programming and robotics tournament

The Innokas programming and robotics tournament is an event geared toward schoolchildren, where elementary and middle-school-age children and teens (grades 1-9) compete in five Innokas contests that apply robotics and programming skills: XSumo, Rescue, Dance/theater, GameDev, and Freestyle AI. The Innokas programming and robotics tournaments have been held since 2003.

Hundreds of children and teens participate in the national tournament each year. The national Innokas2025 programming and robotics tournament will be held on May. Regional tournaments will be held in March, which will determine the participants for the national tournament. Regional tournaments will be held around Finland at regional locations that coordinate the Innokas tournament.  

The sponsors for the Innokas 2025 programming and robotics tournament are Finnish National Agency for Education, Enfuce, Union of Professional Engineers in Finland, Incap, Suomen Robotiikkayhdistys, Normet, Tevella, Upknowledge, and GIM Robotics.
