Analog Golden Jubilee Marks FIRST In Robotics To Youth

BANGALORE: Analog Devices, Inc. is celebrating its 50th anniversary by expanding support of FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology), a not-for-profit organization founded by inventor Dean Kamen to inspire young people’s interest and participation in science and technology.

A global leader in high-performance semiconductors for signal processing applications, ADI has contributed to the FIRST mission since 2004 through employees volunteering as mentors and judges, donations of converters, sensors and other products, as well as monetary donations and support of FIRST competition teams.

 “Through the world of robotics, FIRST empowers young people and starts them on the road to becoming innovators of tomorrow,” said Ray Stata cofounder and chairman of the board, Analog Devices.

“It is truly amazing and inspiring to see these students developing robots while in middle school and high school with capabilities that surpass the most advanced systems in development back in 1965 when ADI was founded. We are honored to be a part of FIRST and we are proud of the many ADI employees who support the teams.”
