Joan Nadal

Joan Nadal, an Industrial Designer, inventor and tech enthusiast, wanted to share the magic of robotics with his daughter. When he couldn’t find a tool that was fun, educational, and accessible, he built one himself: a robot made from a 3D-printed body and the “brain” of a smartphone. More than a toy, it was a hands-on lesson in coding, engineering, and sustainability.

The E3bot quickly garnered attention, exhibited at prestigious events like the Rome and Paris Maker Faires. Its innovative design truly shone when showcased at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris. There, it caught the eye of UNESCO’s STEM education lead who, proposed Joan become a trainer, sharing how he designed and built his robot. For five years, the E3bot project grew and improved through extensive UNESCO missions, with Joan traveling the globe, sharing his knowledge and empowering educators.
