CIE LT Forge Becomes the General Sponsor of the Marijampolė RoboForge League

UAB CIE LT Forge and the public institution Lispa have signed a cooperation agreement under which CIE LT Forge has become the general sponsor of the Marijampolė RoboForge League. These are the first robotics events organized in Marijampolė, serving as qualifiers for the national Lituanica X ROBOT GAMES league.

The Lispa school project combines robotics competitions with creative workshops. Students from grades 3–12 will compete monthly in the PRO+ arena, while younger participants will develop their skills in the RoboMakers Lab workshops. The season will run from October 2025 to June 2026. This practice-based learning model develops programming, design, and teamwork skills.

“We became the general sponsor because we want as many children and young people as possible to discover the excitement of engineering through hands-on experience: building, programming, and working in teams. The competitive element will add even more drive and motivation. We believe this project will nurture a new generation of future specialists, strengthening both the region’s and Lithuania’s industry,” says Darius Masionis, CEO of CIE LT Forge.

“The support of CIE LT Forge enables us to expand the number of teams, improve the quality of events, and ensure a consistent pathway to the Lituanica X ROBOT GAMES – giving talented students more practice, determination, and opportunities to grow,” emphasizes Vaidas Baranauskas, Director of Lispa.

The project is expected to help schools integrate modern technologies into non-formal education and provide students with practical skills aligned with labor market needs. Beyond competitions, students will also experience real-life connections with engineering – team mentoring, exposure to real engineering challenges, and inspiring career stories.

Such a partnership creates mutual value: business contributes to the advancement of regional education, while students gain access to real technological practice, mentors, and the motivation to continue their journey to the national finals.
