We facilitate fiscal sponsorship of competitive STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Manufacturing/Math) K-12 teams, in support of programs without their own nonprofit organization or school support, and support exciting hands-on learning and living events like Gulf Coast MakerCon, Tampa Bay’s annual maker festival, and ROBOTICON Tampa Bay, an annual youth STEAM Showcase event.  FCDI is the founder of the Tampa Bay Advanced Manufacturing & Robotics Center, through which our three major programs: ROBOTICON, MakerCon and our Equity in Entrepreneurship program are powered.
