Mitutoyo Continues Partnership with STEM Racing for the 2025 World Finals

Mitutoyo, the world's leading manufacturer of precision measuring equipment, is proud to announce the continuation of our partnership with STEM Racing, the prestigious global STEM education challenge. This renewed collaboration underscores our unwavering commitment to fostering excellence, precision, and the development of the next generation of engineers and innovators.

Elevating Precision in Global STEM Education

Formerly known as F1 in Schools, STEM Racing empowers bright young minds from across the globe to design, engineer, and race miniature Formula 1 cars. The pinnacle of this challenge, the Aramco STEM Racing World Finals 2025, will be held from 27 September to 2 October 2025, at Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore. We are thrilled to support over 90 student teams representing more than 30 countries as they showcase their ingenuity and technical prowess.

Mitutoyo's Crucial Role in Ensuring Fairness and Accuracy

Our continued support significantly strengthens the technical foundation of the event, specifically during the scrutineering phase. This crucial inspection process reflects the stringent standards of a real Formula 1 Grand Prix, with each team's car undergoing thorough examination under Parc Fermé conditions. Utilizing Mitutoyo's top-of-the-line equipment, scrutineers assess every car for dimensional integrity and accuracy, ensuring compliance with strict regulations.

Tools such as vernier calipers, digimatic scales, and other advanced metrology instruments are employed to measure each car to millimeter-level accuracy. This unparalleled technical precision is vital for determining technical compliance and maintaining fairness in the competition. Teams also gain invaluable firsthand experience by observing this process, providing them with real-world insight into professional engineering practices.

Empowering Students Through Metrology Education

In the lead-up to the World Finals, participating teams benefit from exclusive access to the Mitutoyo eLearning platform. This comprehensive digital resource offers in-depth training on metrology principles, measurement techniques, and tool handling. This initiative is designed to enhance students’ understanding and skills, equipping them with the knowledge necessary for the crucial scrutineering judging.

A Shared Vision for Tomorrow's Innovators

Takashi Matsuike, Managing Director of Mitutoyo Asia Pacific, emphasizes the profound impact of this event: "The Aramco STEM Racing World Finals is crucial for developing the next generation of engineers and innovators. The training and experience gained today are vital for tomorrow's industry success. The Finals also provide an excellent platform for us to highlight the practical applications of metrology and showcase the essential tools and equipment that drive it."

Andrew Denford, Founder and CEO of F1 in Schools, also shared his perspective: “We are proud to have the continued support of Mitutoyo, a global leader in precision engineering. Accurate measurement is at the core of all great engineering—whether it’s a full-scale Formula 1 car or our scale racing models. With Mitutoyo’s tools and expertise, we ensure a level playing field and inspire students to adopt the highest standards of technical excellence.”

Mitutoyo's Global Commitment to Precision

With a global presence spanning over 100 countries, Mitutoyo offers unparalleled local support alongside world-class technical expertise. Our comprehensive range of precision measuring solutions—from micrometers, calipers, and indicators to hardness testers, vision measuring systems, form measuring machines, and 3D coordinate measuring machines—makes us the partner of choice for leading industries and educational institutions worldwide.

The continued partnership between Mitutoyo and STEM Racing underscores our mutual dedication to empowering young STEM talent, fostering innovation, and inspiring the engineers of tomorrow through real-world experience, global collaboration, and cutting-edge technology. We look forward to another successful World Finals in Singapore and the incredible achievements of the participating teams.
