Robogals Asia Pacific SINE Perth 2014.  120 participants from Australia, Philippines, Japan, New Zealand and China.  Our biggest SINE to date!

SINE stands for Seminars Inducting New Executive Committee Members.  We hold the SINE annually in each of our regions - Asia Pacific, North America, Europe/UK.  Executive committee members from each of our chapters attend to get trained in running Robogals chapters, to compare notes on best practices for running a chapter and to network with like-minded peers from all across the region.
