adding to this: exactly the same competition will take place for one of the Episodes (arguably the closest to @Home) during IROS2021, a couple of weeks after. So you can even participate in both with a single effort.

Dear @Home teams, please consider participation to the SciRoc Challenge (Bologna, Italy, September 2021) that includes tests certainly in-line with @Home research interests.
Do not hesitate to contact us for any information.
Best regards, Luca.
*SMART CITIES ROBOTICS CHALLENGE (SCIROC) 2021 : Call for interest now open! Deadline: Friday 30^th April 2021. *
After the outstanding success of our first Smart Cities Robotics Challenge in Milton Keynes, UK, in which we estimate we may have shown the state of the art in European robotics to around 650,000 people, we’re now promoting our second event in Bologna, Italy, 6 - 11 September 2021.
Teams will bring their robots from all over Europe to compete in an environment that embeds the newest technologies in an ancient location. We’re aiming for a safe physical event (but have plans for teams that can’t travel if lockdown restrictions come back again).
The last year has been hard, and across Europe it is time for people to start to re-emerge from their hibernation, and embrace life again. Our second SCIROC event will be an opportunity for robotics teams to get together and celebrate. It is also the perfect platform to show that robotics in Europe will play a role in supporting our happy safe future by showcasing research, and engaging with industry and the public. We all know how hard life has been with Covid-19, people will be full of questions about how robotics could help in the future.
*Want to be involved?*
For anyone that is interested in taking part in this year’s Smart City Challenge, our call for interested teams is now open! Register your interest via the SCIROC website by 30th April 2021: https://sciroc.org/2021-challenge-description/
We hope to see you in Bologna!
