TTECH AND ROBOTICS

A MAJOR investor in JC’s robotics team is Samuels’ employer, tTech Limited, the leading managed IT services provider in Jamaica, which is a Jamaican company that provides world-class IT services. Founded by JC Old Boy Edward ‘Teddy’ Alexander, the son of Carlton Alexander, tTech has been sponsoring the team for five years and is proud of its association with Samuels to also support the national robotics team and the sport of robotics in Jamaica.

“It’s a natural sponsorship for us as one of the pillars of our corporate social responsibility is youth development,” said Gillian Murray, marketing and HR manager at tTech.

Samuels wants more Jamaican youngsters to consider the opportunity of being exposed to more careers in the field of technology through robotics. “I always say, it’s not a team building a robot. It’s a robot building a team,” he said.
