The 2020 Season MakeX competition program was released during the opening 
ceremony. The theme of the 2020 season will be Future Vision, and the

Over the past year, MakeX Robotics Competition has swept over 6 continents with 
60 countries and 150 cities, attracting over 10,000 teams to register for the 
competition. The Final adopted an AI-themed setting in the 30,000 m2 stadium, 
and the AI Carnival space outside of the stadium was another appealing spot 
where tech enthusiasts can linger around for hours.

One Vietnamese contestant, after days of learning and training, began to 
realize the nice qualities in teammates, "Though we still have different 
opinions, we always listen to each other to make it better." As a Chilean 
contestant said, "We laughed, we learned, we stressed and finally we had a 
great time!"

Through 3 years of exponential growth, MakeX Robotics Competition is becoming 
an internationally-renowned cross-cultural platform where contestants can 
exchange ideas, advanced technology, communicate through competition and 
teamwork, and develop creativity. MakeX will keep its momentum to grow to 
provide a bigger stage for more global contestants in the coming years.
