Formula Student + Build Fund - Winners Announced

We are delighted to announce the winning teams for this year's Build Fund. RS Components Grass Roots continue to support the Global IMechE Formula Student and UAS Challenge teams through the Build Fund.

RS Grass Roots Education are proud sponsors of both competitions this year and have opened a Build Fund to support teams with hands-on technical learning as they bring their designs to life.

The Build Fund allows the teams to evaluate their team objectives, areas of improvement in regards to technical skills, and how the fund will impact their competition entry. The entries provided very interesting ambitions and direction of developing more sustainable solutions with most teams pushing to electrify their cars.

The lucky winners of the Build Fund will be provided with:

  1. £750*/equivalent - Formula Student Teams
  2. £250*/equivalent - UAS Challenge Teams

You will be hearing a lot of the winning teams over the coming months as they share their story on DesignSpark, check it out here: https://www.rs-online.com/designspark/formula-student-uas-challenge-build-fund-2022
