MISSION STATEMENT
FLIRT’s main goal is to spread public and international awareness of FIRST and to promote integration among other teams.
As the FIRST program expands to an international level, it will become more and more important to facilitate effective communication between teams, especially to maintain the strong level of cooperation that the FIRST program now enjoys. It is the goal of FLIRT to ensure that ties between teams stay strong, despite language and geographical barriers that inevitably lie between them.
