And there’s no better investment than in the next generation of creators and inventors. That’s why we proudly sponsored the [RoboBlazers](https://www.thebluealliance.com/team/7617), who made their way to the FIRST® Championship in Houston, April 19-22, 2023. Founded by inventor Dean Kamen in 1989, [FIRST](https://www.firstinspires.org)(For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a global robotics and STEM community. The FIRST Championship is the culmination of team-based robotics challenges for students 4-18 years old. Hailing from University High School in Carmel, Indiana, the [RoboBlazers (FRC 7617)](https://www.thebluealliance.com/team/7617) won a series of local and district competitions before taking their skills to the [FIRST Robotics Competition](https://www.firstinspires.org/robotics/frc/what-is-first-robotics-competition) presented by BAE Systems.    | ![Pamela Cheng, Corporate Vice PresidentGeneral Manager — Global Sales, MCC](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Pamela%20Cheng%2c%20Corporate%20Vice%20PresidentGeneral%20Manager%20%E2%80%94%20Global%20Sales%2c%20MCC.png?width=500&height=500&name=Pamela%20Cheng%2c%20Corporate%20Vice%20PresidentGeneral%20Manager%20%E2%80%94%20Global%20Sales%2c%20MCC.png)   | > We are extremely proud of our RoboBlazers, who came in at No. 15 of 77 national teams during this five-week challenge. This year’s theme was ENERGIZE, and the game, CHARGED UP, encouraged competitors to address challenges related to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy. > > — *Pamela Cheng, Corporate Vice President/General Manager — Global Sales, MCC*   | | --- | --- |   The 2022-2023 competition just ended, and we’re already looking forward to the next one! We’ll sponsor the RoboBlazers, as they compete in the 2023-2024 FIRST season.     ###### Tags: [News](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/tag/news) #### Related Content [![](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/hubfs/MCC%20%26%20the%20RoboBlazers%20Empowering%20Next-Gen%20Innovation%20%20%20%20-%20mcc%20semi%20-%20micro%20commercial%20components%201080x400-1.png)](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/mcc-the-roboblazers-empowering-next-gen-innovation) April 9, 2025 #### [MCC & the RoboBlazers: Empowering Next-Gen Innovation](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/mcc-the-roboblazers-empowering-next-gen-innovation) [![](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/hubfs/The%20RoboBlazers%20Advance%20to%20the%20FIRST%20World%20Championship!%20%20%20-%20mcc%20semi%20-%20micro%20commercial%20components%201080x400%20%281%29.png)](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/the-roboblazers-advance-to-the-first-world-championship) April 11, 2025 #### [The RoboBlazers Advance to the FIRST World Championship!](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/the-roboblazers-advance-to-the-first-world-championship) [![](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/hubfs/Power%20Up%20Efficiency%20MCC%20Launches%201200V%20Ultrafast%20Recovery%20Diodes%20in%20TO-247AD%20%20-%20mcc%20semi%20-%20micro%20commercial%20components%201080x400.png)](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/power-up-efficiency-mcc-launches-1200v-ultrafast-recovery-diodes-in-to-247ad) December 16, 2025 #### [Power Up Efficiency: MCC Launches 1200V Super Fast Recovery Diodes in TO-247AD](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/power-up-efficiency-mcc-launches-1200v-ultrafast-recovery-diodes-in-to-247ad) [![](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/hubfs/High%20Efficiency%2c%20Low%20RDS%28on%29%20MCC%E2%80%99s%20Automotive%20100V%20N-Channel%20MOSFET%20%20%20-%20mcc%20semi%20-%20micro%20commercial%20components%201080x400.png)](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/high-efficiency-low-rdson-mccs-automotive-100v-n-channel-mosfet) May 29, 2025 #### [High Efficiency, Low RDS(on): MCC’s Automotive 100V N-Channel MOSFET](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/high-efficiency-low-rdson-mccs-automotive-100v-n-channel-mosfet) ![MCC](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/hs-fs/hubfs/mcc%20150x150%20(1).png?width=50&height=50&name=mcc%20150x150%20(1).png) Post by [MCC](https://solutions.mccsemi.com/news/author/mcc) May 5, 2023 MCC is a leading integrated device manufacturer (IDM) of discrete semiconductors worldwide.
