CAIRO, EGYPT — June 2026 — Metal Monsters proudly announces the launch of its 6th Edition. Building on the remarkable success of its previous edition, this year’s competition opens its arena to participants from across the globe, welcoming builders, engineers, and innovators to compete on a single stage.

The 6th Edition is organized by the Global Innovation & Entrepreneurship company (GIE) as Managing Partner, in strategic partnership with the Ministry of Education and Technical Education, with Misr El Kheir Foundation as Community Partner and MENA Robotics Technologies as Technical Partner.

The competition challenges participants to design, build, and battle their own combat robots inside a purpose-built arena, applying advanced principles in mechanical design, electronics, and control systems. The 6th Edition features two competitive tracks — Mid-Weight and Light-Weight — welcoming participants from schools, universities, and graduates. Every machine reinforces Metal Monsters’ identity as a premier global platform where competitive engineering meets creativity and technical mastery.

As part of this mission, training programs are being implemented in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Technical Education and with support from the Misr El Kheir Foundation to establish robotics clubs in schools and equip students with engineering and technical skills from an early age.

Commenting on the launch, the partners and organizers shared their remarks:

The Ministry of Education and Technical Education expressed its support, noting:

“Competitions like Metal Monsters embody the experiential, hands-on learning that prepares our students for the technical challenges of the future, nurturing their engineering skills, creativity, and resilience. Initiatives of this caliber are essential in building a generation ready to lead in science and technology.”

Eng. Tarek Salah, CEO of the Global Innovation & Entrepreneurship company (GIE), added:

“Combat robotics pushes young engineers to think under pressure, iterate fast, and turn raw ideas into machines that perform. The success of last year’s edition proved the depth of talent in this space, and taking the arena global this year reflects our commitment to nurturing world-class engineering through real competition. We are proud to drive Metal Monsters’ growth on a global scale.”

Eng. Muhammad Al-Bitar, CEO of MENA Robotics Technologies, stated:

“Each edition raises the technical bar. As Technical Partner, we ensure every machine competes in a rigorous, safe, and world-class environment. Going global means we will witness an even greater diversity of engineering approaches this year.”

For its part, Misr El Kheir Foundation emphasized that supporting public-school students participating in the competition is a vital commitment rooted in the Foundation’s belief in human development, particularly on the technical side. In a competition where talent, a passion for learning, and a spirit of challenge come together, the right environment is created to nurture the future innovators among Egypt’s youth.

As registration opens, teams from around the world are invited to take on the challenge and earn their place among the machines that define the arena.
