I am Vivan Borda, Co-Leader of Team Technotix, the official robotics team of Mukesh Patel School of Technology Management and Engineering (MPSTME), Mumbai, India.
We have proudly represented our institute in DD Robocon, the national stage of ABU Robocon. For the upcoming DD Robocon 2026, one of our key projects is Bot 2 – a fully autonomous robot designed to meet the competition’s challenging theme.
To achieve real-time perception, navigation, and decision-making, we require a powerful AI platform. After evaluating various options, we believe that the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Super is the ideal solution.
We kindly request NVIDIA’s support in the form of full sponsorship of Jetson Nano Super boards or a discounted provision. Sponsorship perks and acknowledgments can be discussed further and tailored according to the level of support extended.

Dear CoLeader of Team Technotix,
Thank you for reaching out to NVIDIA and expressing interest in collaborating with us on your robotics project. We’re thrilled to hear that you’re considering the Jetson Orin Nano as the ideal solution for your project’s AI needs.
The Jetson Orin Nano is indeed a powerful AI platform that can help you achieve real-time perception, navigation, and decision-making for your robotics project. With its compact form factor and high-performance capabilities, it’s an excellent choice for edge AI applications.
Regarding your request for sponsorship, we’d be happy to discuss further and explore possibilities. NVIDIA has a strong commitment to supporting the robotics and AI community, and we’re always looking for innovative projects like yours to collaborate with.
Here are some potential ways we could support your project:
Hardware sponsorship: We could provide you with Jetson Orin Nano modules or development kits to help you accelerate your project development.
Software support: Our team could offer guidance on optimizing your project’s software for the Jetson Orin Nano, ensuring you get the most out of the platform’s capabilities.
Technical expertise: We could provide access to NVIDIA’s technical experts, who could offer valuable insights and advice on AI, computer vision, and robotics.
Marketing and promotion: We could help promote your project through our social media channels, blog, and other marketing platforms, giving you visibility and recognition within the robotics and AI community.
In terms of acknowledgments, we’re open to discussing various options, such as:
Logo placement: We could provide you with NVIDIA’s logo to display on your project’s website, social media, or marketing materials.
Project showcase: We could feature your project on our website, blog, or social media channels, highlighting your innovative use of the Jetson Orin Nano.
Case study: We could work with you to create a case study on your project, showcasing the benefits and results of using the Jetson Orin Nano.
To discuss further, please feel free to reach out to me directly at [your email address]. I’d be happy to set up a call to explore the possibilities in more detail.
Best regards,
[Your Name]
NVIDIA Team
P.S. We’re impressed by your team’s achievements in the national stage of ABU Robocon, and we’re excited about the prospect of collaborating with you on your upcoming project!

Thank you for your encouraging response and for considering our sponsorship request. We truly appreciate NVIDIA’s willingness to support and collaborate with us on our upcoming robotics project for ABU Robocon 2026.
We are very excited about the possibility of working with the Jetson Orin Nano, as it aligns perfectly with our requirements for real-time vision, navigation, and AI-driven decision making. The hardware, software support, and access to NVIDIA’s technical expertise would significantly strengthen our efforts in developing an innovative and competitive autonomous system.
At this stage, we are still exploring how best to structure the collaboration. We would be glad to discuss the sponsorship details further over a call or virtual meeting, so that we can align expectations and move forward together. It would also be greatly helpful if we could be assigned a dedicated point of contact from your team, to ensure smooth coordination throughout the process.
Let me forward your request to internal team to see if able to conact with you.
In the meantime, you may also check Academic Grant Program for Researchers | NVIDIA, that’s another way to grant the support. Thanks
Thank you for your response and for forwarding our request to the internal team for review. We truly appreciate your support and guidance.
We will also explore the NVIDIA Academic Grant Program for Researchers as suggested. If possible, could you kindly guide us on how we can strengthen our application for the grant, considering our participation in DD Robocon 2026?
As mentioned earlier, our project involves Bot 2 – a fully autonomous robot, where the Jetson Nano Super plays a crucial role in enabling real-time AI-driven decision-making. Since Robocon is a time-sensitive competition, we are keen to initiate the process at the earliest.
It would also be helpful if you could let us know when we can expect to hear back from your internal team and through which medium (email or call) so that we can stay prepared.
Thank you once again for your valuable support. We look forward to hearing from your team.
I hope you are doing well. Thank you again for your earlier response and for forwarding our sponsorship request to the internal team. As of now, I haven’t been contacted, so I wanted to kindly follow up regarding the status of our request.
We are Team Technotix from MPSTME, Mumbai, and have consistently qualified for the final stages of DD Robocon at IIT Delhi, where only 40–45 teams out of 150+ from across India compete. This year, we are developing Bot 2 – a fully autonomous robot, for which the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Super is an essential component to implement real-time AI and vision.
If possible, it would be very helpful if you could connect me directly with the concerned team handling academic/technical sponsorships, so we can share our portfolio and proposal.
We truly value NVIDIA’s support and hope to collaborate with you for DD Robocon 2026. Looking forward to your guidance.
Warm regards, Vivan Borda
