What are the Avnet Tech Games?

The Avnet Tech Games (ATG) is an annual multidisciplinary technology competition open to all colleges, institutes, and universities in Arizona. The event offers students the opportunity to apply what they’re learning in school to real-world scenarios. Teams of students compete to win prizes and scholarships.

On Saturday, April 5, The Avnet Tech Games showcased students testing their knowledge, creativity, problem-solving and technical skills. All events are designed to help prepare students for today's highly-competitive job market and were judged by an independent panel of sponsor representatives and technical experts.

Students have the opportunity to network with industry leaders for potential internship and job opportunities. In addition to a networking event, the day’s events also include a trade show/career fair and awards ceremony, where the winning students are announced and awarded their scholarships and prizes.
