Nemesis wins $1000 Cosmetic Technology Transfer Conference Poster Contest

Robbinsville High School FIRST Robotics Team 2590, Nemesis, presented to the prestigious New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists.

Nemesis arrived first at the Renaissance Woodridge Hotel in Edison, New Jersey with Josh Falk, Baljot Ranu, Uddhav Joglekar, Arnav Vast, Jolia Thadal and Parth Mandrekar representing the team.  We proceeded to erect our booth within our designated area of convention.  Due to greater attendance than expected, the NYSCC lacked nametags respecting Falk and Joglekar. Though inconvenienced, Nemesis performed cleverly and with clear preparation: when asked for business cards, Falk and Joglekar presented them swiftly confidently.

After enjoying a generously-provided breakfast and aweing its audience with Athena and effective multimedia video by Karla Dimatulac, all received an invitation to the conference room where highly-involved and renown individuals provided presentations regarding their fields, totaling four. Provided information proved phenomenal and diverse from the Human Genome Project to the Importance of Innovation lectures. Team 2590 received exposure to professionally-conducted projects and extensive concepts prevalent globally. 

Following the conclusion of presentation three, Nemesis enjoyed a spectacular and appreciated lunch, followed by an extensive period of marketing.  Though launched with sparing attention, the effort eventually received bombardment by a myriad of individuals and organizations interested in the establishment. Team 2590 operated with unquestionable efficiency and deliberacy, highlighting the Design Cycle, enticing listeners from lectures regarding the kickoff to the competition. Vigorously answering questions varying interminably regarding topic complexity, Nemesis members conveyed its overarching messages to their attentive audience:

  • Nemesis requires more than technologically-adept individuals to function: this corporation requires both marketing and financials to operate effectively—and at all

  • Nemesis comprises itself with diversity regarding gender, interests, sociality and ability

  • Nemesis desires no less than to produce the most victorious and effective robots possible

Concluding this incredible event, the NYSCC generously awarded Team 2590 one-thousand dollars toward team funding. The Robbinsville High School FIRST Robotics Team honors the New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists for invitation and truly appreciates their patronage.

Congratulations, Team 2590!
