Hey New York Business Community! This is when tech students need your help the most! We encourage businesses to support District II (NY/NJ) teams – especially those listed above! Travel to Florida is costly! If you can help a team, let us know! We’ll connect you with a coach! Your company logo can be front & center during the multi-day, internet broadcasted event. With NYS hosting the 2027 FAI International Championship, we anticipate a great deal of international interest! We are also happy to connect your company to the U.S. Drone Soccer Association (usdronesoccer.org) for a list of national sponsorship opportunities.
