NatWest Group Launches New RSK STEM Labs with ISF

NatWest Group Inaugurates New RSK STEM Labs in Chennai and Bengaluru

Access to quality STEM education creates opportunities for students to explore, innovate, and develop the skills needed for the future. Strengthening this vision, India STEM Foundation, with the support of NatWest Group, inaugurated two new Robo Siksha Kendra (RSK) STEM Labs in South India, expanding access to experiential learning for more students.

The inaugurations took place on 20 July 2026 at Adarsh International School, Bengaluru, and on 21 July 2026 at S M English School, Bengaluru.

Expanding Access to Hands-on STEM Education

The newly established Robo Siksha Kendra Labs will provide students with opportunities to engage in robotics, coding, engineering design, and hands-on STEM activities.

These learning spaces are designed to encourage creativity, experimentation, critical thinking, and collaborative problem-solving while making STEM education more accessible for young learners.

A Shared Commitment to Future-Ready Learning

The Chennai inauguration was attended by Nandana Dutta, members of the NatWest CSR team, the India STEM Foundation team, and the school management. 

The Bengaluru inauguration was attended by the NatWest CSR team, NatWest employees, the India STEM Foundation team, and representatives from the school management.

 Both events concluded with plantation drives, reflecting a shared commitment to STEM education, environmental sustainability, and community development. 

Building Strong STEM Ecosystems

The establishment of every Robo Siksha Kendra represents more than the creation of a laboratory.

It creates a vibrant learning environment where students can explore emerging technologies, develop practical skills, and gain confidence through experiential learning. These labs encourage students to become innovators, creators, and future problem-solvers while supporting schools in delivering engaging STEM education.

Strengthening the Future Through CSR Partnerships

India STEM Foundation continues to collaborate with leading organisations to expand access to quality STEM education across the country.

The support extended by NatWest Group reflects the growing role of CSR partnerships in building future-ready classrooms, empowering educators, and creating opportunities for students to discover their potential through hands-on learning.

With every new Robo Siksha Kendra, another community gains access to the tools, mentorship, and environment needed to inspire the next generation of innovators.
