Visitors to the School's stand will have the opportunity to discover various robots, such as Lola, from the Institute of Systems and Robotics (ISR), or the quadrupedal Unitree G02 and humanoid Unitree G1, both from the Técnico Venture Lab (TVL). They can also experience Echo of the Abyss, an immersive deep-sea diving experience using virtual reality, developed by the Institute of Interactive Technologies (ITI-LARSyS). The program also includes a rover assembly demonstration by the Núcleo de Estudantes de Eletrónica (N3E) and other interactive activities.
Técnico will also present six spin-offs originating from the institution: Acubic, Keel, Opsivision.ai, RTBEAMTECH, RipeNew, and Testwaves. Another start-up, to be chosen, will integrate the UniVerse: Academia Empreendedora 2026 project from the Universidade de Lisboa, at the Pavilion of Portugal.
