Dear Maike and Sandrine,
Maike, thank you for the clarification—this is very helpful for us to understand how to proceed.
Sandrine, we are delighted to hear that Maxtronics is back with NAO, and we would be very happy to discuss your participation at RoboCup 2026 Incheon—including the possibility of hosting a NAO Clinic to support the competing teams.
Please note that competition venue space is currently very limited, so we may need to explore alternative arrangements depending on your requirements.
To move forward efficiently, we would like to confirm a few details: - Booth/workspace requirements for the clinic - NAO Clinic operation (technical support, spare parts, on-site assistance, etc.) - Any sponsorship or partnership arrangements you may be interested in
We understand your urgency regarding flight bookings, accommodation, and shipping arrangements. Once we receive the above information, we will prepare available options and next steps.
Looking forward to working with you. Best regards, Robocup 2026 Incheon Local Organizing Committee

To give you a little bit of background: Maxtronics is not a league sponsor. There are special arrangements for league sponsors that are made with the Federation directly. As Maxtronics does not have a standing contract with the RoboCup Federation, negotiations about terms and conditions for their 2026 presence at RoboCup are for you to be made directly. I am CCing the contact Trustees again on this e-mail. I am sure they will be able to jump in and help out in case you need support negotiating terms and conditions. Kind regards Maike Am 06.05.2026 um 10:59 schrieb Sandrine TOURCHER | Maxtronics:
Dear Local Organizing Committee, Thank you for your answer. The HSL Committee has recommended us to contact you directly. So I'm adding everyone in copy to find the good person to contact. We would like to come to Incheon and organize the trip as soon as possible (flight, hotels, transportation) and we are a bit nervous to miss the deadlines for material shipping and bookings etc,.
