Tech + Tour 2026

On 21 April 2026, Springfield were delighted to welcome back the 'Tech Truck,' an innovative mobile roadshow dedicated to education and technology. This project, led by the South Hampshire College Group in collaboration with six other local education providers is aimed at engaging and inspiring students by highlighting a wide array of career possibilities in areas such as maritime, logistics, health and social care, and the creative arts. This in turn creates awareness and exposure to the changing landscapes within the engineering technologies sectors.

The roadshow offered students hands-on, interactive experiences. Participants delved into virtual and augmented reality systems, experimented with marine and flight simulation technologies, and interacted with sphero bots that they could fully programme using scratch, received advice from Nao, an AI robot programmed to advise on careers as well as using the music composer programme.

This roadshow provided extensive benefits by giving students a glimpse into the fascinating world of technology and the numerous career paths it offers.
