Project stem6/21/2023 In October 2017, Melexis Tessenderlo and Melexis Ieper both organized a STEM workshop for the children of our colleagues. The children are still playing with their Melexis bot at home and some of them are even dreaming of a future career at Melexis. Much to the STEM coordination team's delight, the small future engineers were very motivated and enthusiastic while getting introduced into the wondrous world of electronics. On 23 February 2019, the STEM coordination team of Melexis Ieper organized a Bot workshop for 30 children between 6 and 12 years old.ĭuring the workshop, the children got the opportunity to create their own Melexis bot, a small robot designed with Melexis sensors. Stephane Berghmans, Managing Director of Technopolis® This is undoubtedly a positive development that is testimony to great societal commitment and a targeted long-term vision. There are already various partnerships between STEM academies and companies, but Melexis is the first company to also support the STEM academy financially. During working hours, the company also offers its employees the chance to act as a ‘technology mentor’ and share their knowledge at the various academies in Flanders.įrançoise Chombar is also the Chair of the STEM platform, an independent group of experts who advise the STEM steering group and the Flemish government on the STEM action plan. Melexis provides the STEM academy network, with financial support via a ‘technology bonus’. The STEM academy network is aimed at children and young people from the age of five to eighteen and supports initiatives that provide education in areas such as woodwork technology, electronics and electricity, and robotics. Our work involves a cooperation with the STEM academy, coordinated by Technopolis®.
