On Saturday 27 May 2023, the Universitat Jaume I hosted, for the third time, the World Robot Olympiad (WRO), an international educational robotics competition in which 40 teams from the Valencian Community participated. The young participants between 6 and 19 years of age demonstrated their skills in the programming of robots by passing the tests administered by the organisers in a total of 80 countries all over the world.

The tests of the World Robot Olympiad consist in designing and programming a robot to solve a challenge. Thus, under the guidance of a trainer, the students have to build an innovative robot that solves a challenge. By so doing, they learn and display their problem-solving abilities, while at the same time developing personal skills. The winners in each category will be able to participate in the national final, where they can compete for a place in the world final.

This regional competition of the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) took place in the sports pavilion of the Universitat Jaume I and was organised by this university and the Maker's Club Association. In the 2022 edition more than 180 young people from different municipalities in the Valencian Community participated in the competition.

The members of the organising committee and the jury from the UJI included Maribel Castillo, Vice-Director of Management, Infrastructure and Qualifications and a teacher in the Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering; Vicente R. Tomás, Head of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering and a teacher in the Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering; Merche Marqués, a teacher in the Bachelor's Degree in Video Game Design and Development; Antonio Morales, Vice-Director of the Bachelor's Degree in Robotic Intelligence; Sandra Catalán, a postdoctoral researcher of the Ramón y Cajal programme; Iker Martín, a researcher in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering; Lorena Mayo, a Psychology graduate and leisure activities monitor; and the students Pablo Mayo of the Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Engineering, Iván Monzó and Ana Sancho of the Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering, Pau Montagut of the Bachelor's Degree in Robotic Intelligence and Jaume Lloret and Álvaro Rodríguez of the Bachelor's Degree in Video Game Design and Development.
