“I created my window-cleaning robot after seeing my father struggling to clean the family’s windows. I became passionate about my project. I’ve learnt that success will follow you if you follow your passion.”

Sohail Abdulla,Supreme Winner,

Bright Sparks 2013

Your organisation has a real opportunity to support the development of New Zealand’s young ICT and electronic engineering talent by

supporting Bright Sparks 2014.

The Bright Sparks Awards were created by The Skills Organisation to encourage young people to experience electronics directly through a project-based approach.

Since 2000, more than 1,000 brilliant young people from throughout New Zealand have created a range of innovative projects in a bid to win their age category.

Entrants begin with an idea for an invention in the electronics and software fields. They then develop a prototype and enter it into the competition. Many inventions are solutions to everyday challenges the students encounter in their lives.

Past winners have gone on to represent New Zealand in the international arena.

Bright Sparks 2013 Supreme winner Sohail Abdulla, who developed a window cleaning robot, won the U.S. Ambassador’s Outstanding Award, which included an all-expenses paid trip to the INTEL Science Fair in Phoenix, Arizona in May 2013. He placed third. This exposure and success enabled Sohail to make international contacts early in his career.

Bright Sparks 2012 Supreme winner James Watson placed second in the Computer Engineering category of the Taiwan International Science and Engineering Fair for his project, a Rubik’s Cube-solving robot.

“Bright Sparks gave me the inspiration I needed to create my self-number testing tool. I know how important education is and I remember finding maths boring, so I created a tool that is colourful, interactive and elegant.”
