Speed is impressive. But anyone working with technology knows that a sprint alone isn’t enough. What truly matters are the project, tests, data, team, communication, and the willingness to refine a solution until it functions exactly as intended. This is precisely why Tide Software supports Elektron Racing – a three-person team participating in the STEM Racing 2025/2026 project.
The question isn’t “will they win?”, but “what will they learn along the way?”
In STEM Racing, teams design and build Formula 1 cars. At first glance, it all seems simple: a three-person team, a miniature vehicle, a CO₂ cartridge, and a race.
But just look beneath the surface, and you’ll see that this endeavor is not just a game of automotive fun. It’s a project where young people learn to operate like a technological startup, where they need to:
- design the car
- test the idea
- check aerodynamics
at the same time, they must build a brand, acquire partners, and tell the whole story in a way that is understandable, inspiring, and demonstrates market potential.
Sound familiar? This is exactly what many technological projects look like before they hit the market.
Speed begins long before the starting line
In racing, everyone looks at the result. At the time. At the speed. At the moment of crossing the finish line. But the result must be worked for in advance. In Elektron Racing, this means weeks of analyzing element angles, airflow, but also team discussions to decide on the next stages of the endeavor.
In business communication, it works similarly. The client sees a message, a click, a response, a purchase, or contact with the brand. Behind that single moment lies refined infrastructure, designed pathways, channel selection, personalization, security, and reliability.
In racing, every millisecond counts. In communication – every interaction.
Dreams also have their speed
Behind every technological project lies a DREAM. Sometimes it starts with a simple “what if we tried?”, which then turns into hours of intense work, testing, corrections, stress before a presentation, and joy when something finally works as it should.
For the young scientists from Elektron Racing, it’s not just a miniature Formula 1 car. It’s emotions, ambition, and an experience that lasts.
At Tide Software, we support this project because we believe that technology begins with people who have the courage to dream – and then consistently learn to design, test, and deliver those dreams to the finish line.
