ITR International Tournament of Robots
ARGENTINA ITR QUALIFIER
ROBÓTICA ARGENTINA
Robótica Argentina is the Annual Final of the all robotics competitions in Argentina . It functions as the highest national stage and the main showcase for educational robotics in the country.
The event is structured around the following fundamental pillars:
🎯 Dual Function of the Event Annual Final of the TJR: Brings together and crowns the best teams classified throughout the year in the various regional and state stages. ITR Argentina (National Qualifier): Acts as the official national qualifier. The teams that reach the podium earn the right to represent the country in the major international stage of the International Tournament of Robots (which in 2026, for example, took Brazilian delegations to compete in Buenos Aires, Argentina).
📊 Main Characteristics: Academic Integration: Frequently takes place in parallel with scientific congresses, such as ISYTECH (International Symposium on Technology and Curricular Themes). Accessibility: Maintains the DNA of the Junior Robotics Tournament (Brazil), being an in-person event with free participation. Age Diversity: Groups competitors from 6 years old (elementary school) to undergraduate and graduate students. Social Focus: During its realization, participants and teams are invited to carry out social contribution actions to promote the activities of the organizing institute.
The event is usually held in October.
ITR Competition Structure
The International Tournament of Robots (ITR) is organized as a global competition ecosystem designed to connect local communities, national championships, and international events through a unified pathway of participation and achievement.
This structure allows students and teams from different countries to begin competing close to home while progressing toward national and international recognition.

ITR Local Events in Argentina
ITR Local Events are the foundation of the ITR ecosystem. They are organized within provinces, states, regions, metropolitan areas, or other territorial divisions, making participation accessible to schools, clubs, universities, and educational institutions across each country.
Local events follow a standardized international naming convention:
ITR [Territory] [Year] – [Host City]
Examples:
ITR MISIONES 2026 – Posadas
ITR MISIONES 2026 – Candelaria
ITR BUENOS AIRES 2026 – Hurlingham
ITR BUENOS AIRES 2026 – Buenos Aires
ITR SANTIAGO DEL ESTERO 2026 – Loreto
Multiple local events may be held within the same territory during a competition season. These events provide opportunities for teams to gain experience, showcase their projects, and earn recognition within their regional robotics community.
