Lukas & Markus - Founder of MIRQIDO
We got to know each other during our schooldays in a robot club and in 2010 we started our own business together for the first time. We both have over ten years experience in the field of web development and are now going with MIRQIDO again together as entrepreneurs. We both have a degree in computer science and complement us furthermore in our different technical and business knowledge & skills.

What does MIRQIDO stand for?
The topic of robot competitions has accompanied us since our school days. We ourselves took part in competitions and after our school days we founded the association TECHNIK BEGEISTERT e.V. together with friends. With this association we have been organizing the international robot competition of the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) in Germany for many years. A big highlight in 2021, our organization will host the WRO World Final in November 2021 in Germany.
MIRQIDO stands for some of the countries we visited together during the WRO competitions in the last years (Malaysia, Indonesia, Russia, Qatar and India) as well as for the place where we both studied and where the WRO World Final will be held in 2021 (Dortmund = DO). In the end it is a made-up word, which we like in form and sound in a special way.
